[theavenger333]

i bought an 84 2.8 camaro with 210k on the clock. 200 dollars. as for the cavalier/civic, it depends on the condition, how well it was maintained. people beat the crap out of those cars

[ThatWhiteCivic]

civic with 271,xxx

[Car Guy]

`01 Escort ZX2 with 209k miles, currently at 229k miles. I am AMAZED how little oil the engine uses, less than 1 quart in the last 15,000 miles. The original factory drive train will easily see 300k miles.....

[Jeff]

[TURTLE]

[PureSound15]

:( My Acura had 45k on it ...



...steps out of thread...

[Waver]

97 Ranger 4x4 172k on the body, way less on the engine, paid 2000 for it. Some might say that that was a lot, however the truck was/is extremely clean, minimal rust, engine had under 100k on it, and the clutch was newer.............

Girlfriends 91 Jeep Cherokee 285000 on it and that damn thing still keeps kicking........

[Exitspeed]

The carfax report said my 93 240sx had 250K+. I think there was a mistake though. There was a reading that showed 60,000 miles put on in one year.

That is very possible though, I have been averaging 25,000 miles on the mustang since I got it, sad thing is that the car has sat for about 9 months total in the 2 years that i have had it, from being in storage and not being able to drive it for three months because of illness

My wife and I put 30,000k a year on our Camry (216k right now. Bout it with 60k) each year and that is a LOT of driving. I can't imagine 60k.

The reasons I don't think it had that many miles is 1) the speedo said 100,000 less then the Carfax, and 2) the car was in waaaay too good of shape to have that many miles. I've seen 240's with that many miles on them and they never, ever look like that. The KA was original as well and it still pulled really well. I just had a gut feeling the readings were wrong.

[WickedSix]

bought a 95 f150 300 6 4x4 in 99 with 180K miles for $3500 currently has 270k

[wrath]

99 Silverado GMT800 half ton with 156,000 for $8700. Sold it for $6,000 with 187,000 on it. Bought it with new tires, sold it with new tires. Other than that, unit bearings and oil changes. The Mexican I sold it to is still driving it.

[03CVLX]

This is pretty pathetic but it was my first car. 1989 Buick Park Avenue. Bought it 1997 with a whoppping 43K miles. Everything since has had less miles than that.

[Rocket Power]

Had an 89 Subaru SL Hatchback 4wd with hi and low 4x4 bought it with about 225K from the orig owner gave it back to him when I was done with it at about 260K still had the orig clutch. It was slow, but unstoppable in the winter:headbang

He bought it when the Justy came out and got it cheaper than one of those:rolf

[eyeball]

95 ford E350 285K for $800. It now has 156K on it. Junkyard cluster!

[A B4C Z]

The carfax report said my 93 240sx had 250K+. I think there was a mistake though. There was a reading that showed 60,000 miles put on in one year.

What color was it. MY Buddie had a red one with a black hatch that most definitely did have the miles (250k) i have been trying to find the car for sometime to see what it has on it now. was out in pewaukee area he knew the original owner.

[Gregor]

I didn't pay for mine. My truck was issued to me by my job. 250000 miles on a 03 Dodge Dakota with a 4.7 engine. So far according to my paperwork I am still on factory drivetrain. It burns 1/2 a quart every 3000 miles. These are hard miles, towing and outside line work. Since I had it I have put 15000 in 6 weeks. Mostly highway. Gas mileage sucks, only 10 MPG.

I didnt get a new truck like I thought I would. I am fine with the Dakota, I am the only one that can fit in parking structures. And Chicago trips aren't that big a deal.

Its has changed my mind about Dodges.

[penji04]

1984 toyota pickup 4wd 210,000
Current 1998 tacoma had 154,000 on it

[EvolvedRegal]

95 Jeep XJ

Just sold it with 212,xxx. The kid who bought it is still driving the hell out of it.

If the wife didnt make me get rid of it (apparently she thought it was a safty hazard) I would still have it. But now I get to drive her Tracker around town.

[70challenger452]

93 dodge dakota 4x4 5.2L(now a 5.9), $1900
199,xxx when I bought it, has almost 243,000 now, still runs like a champ

[flyin_blue_egg]

DAMN! Somebody drove that thing! :wooo

i've got an 05' aveo with almost 90,000 on it....when i first got it i was driving 120 miles round trip to school everyday.

[BR3W CITY]

my first car I bought was an integra with 198k on the body, I've also had a chevy 1500 with 200k+.

My '66 has the odo at 17k, but it only goes to 5 digits....i have a feeling this isn't the first 17k its seen lol.

[JBs92Lude]

'92 prelude with 180k on it... still runs like a champ

[Slow Joe]

'87 F150 4.9L I6 4-Speed Manual Trans - Bought it with 303k sold it with 310k (according to carfax/the former owner it had turned it's 5 digit odometer over 3 times) Paid $650

As for Krisite, I think the highest mileage car she's ever owned is our '04 Saab 9-3, bought it with 48k on it paid 14k. Now it has 163k on it... Yes, she drives 50k per year..

[GTO RLY?]

My first car was a 1983 Pontiac Parisienne Brougham with 326,000 miles on it. I had to pay (:rolleyes:) my stupid bitch of an aunt $200 to release it from my grandfather's estate. Fucker didn't even run till after I sank some money into it.

[BadAzzGTA89]

My old Z had 310K on the clock and ran like a gem!!!

[letsrunem]

Bought civic with 114K, blew trans at GLD shortly after. Now has 151K. I think I'm too hard on cars.

[PB86MCSS]

This is pretty pathetic but it was my first car. 1989 Buick Park Avenue. Bought it 1997 with a whoppping 43K miles. Everything since has had less miles than that.

I still drive a 90' LeSabre as my daily...so no, that isn't pathetic :durr . This is the newest car I've ever owned too :goof .

[Moparjim]

I've bought a ton of high mile vehicles - used to buy a lot of ex squads and such. Recently, I bought a 290,000 mile 1992 Jeep Cherokee, that ran and drove great and I ran it up to like 312,000 and only got rid of it due to Cash for Clunkers...

As long as they are maintained right, most cars can last a long long time. Its only when they start piling up past due repairs that they start to fall apart and drive like crap.

Neons under a minivan?!? What next? Huge shiny mufflers under a Japanese car?

Sorry to mislead. I loved that Park Ave. Only reason I ended up selling it was that a ton of things were breaking from previous owners lack of use. It was nickel and diming me to death. What I was saying was pathetic was the fact the highest mile car I have ever owned only had 43,000 miles on it. At least as far as my standings in this thread anyways :rolf

[PB86MCSS]

Ahh, gotcha :D . If cars sit, alot of things can creep up especially if they are older too. Mine sat for about a year or so before I bought it due to my friends DUI situation(s) but has been over 50k of pretty reliable use. Would be cool to take it to 200k, not sure on that though.

[lilws6]

my 93 saturn with 99k on it only put on like 37k since i bought it.

[03CVLX]

Yeah, The dealer told me the elderly man that owned my car before me, rarely drove it. The only thing that ever saw the passenger seat was his oxygen tank. :rolf. All of the doors with the exception of the drivers door actually had the latches freeze up and the dealer actually had to try and pull door panels with the doors frozen shut.
