We have an 89 Chev truck that my hubby said he was going to drive till the wheels fell off. Well about 2 weeks later we were driving down the road, towing a trailer and the left rear wheel fell off. We had it fixed and are still driving it, it has about 260,000 miles. Love those vehicles that just keep going.

We had a Subaru wagon that had over 200,000 miles on it. Since we are still helping our daughters with car insurance, we have several cars with over 100,000 on it. When the girls can finally support their own cars, I hope to get a better car.

I have a real good one. Hubby had a Toyota pick up that had 310,000 miles on it & still had the original clutch. It ran fine, but..the body was rusting & the floor was starting to rust as well. He was worried that he might end up on the highway while doing 60, so we donated it to the Kidney Foundation. But the engine (& clutch) were fine!

My Dodge Durrango has 150000 miles and has been hit by a dump truck at a red light. It didn't total out!!! I am thinking about getting something else. I like the Ford Flex!

It's all good!

I had a hand-me-down Mazda that I got from my folks that I got up to 230,000 with, would have been more but I hadn't been able to afford preventive maintenance. 250,000 is something to aspire to!!

We have 3 Chevy Astro vans and 1 has 250,000 miles on it and still sounds really quiet, one has alittle over a 100,000 and the other has close to 100,00. The most problems we have had with them is with the fuel pumps(buy lifetime warranty) and we had to repair the transmission in the newest one which I think shouldn't have happened.

Subarus are great - I used to drive one in high school and college. Way to go Robin!!

Right now we have a Pontiac minivan that will turn 200,000 this year. We are at 190,000 right now. :) I love cars that go forever, and I love PEOPLE who drive their cars forever!!

Good for you! How long have you had it? I want an Outback. That's the name of my farm so I always thought I should drive a Subaru Outback. I have an Isuzu Trooper with 135,000 right now.
