She's a good wife for letting you know the good days are done. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (2 children) Maybe in the 1970s. Any modern car worth owning will be way more reliable than that if you change your oil regularly. We have a 2004 F-150 with 565,000 miles on the original engine and it's still running great. We had to get a new transmission at 240k, and I think that's the only repair it's needed over about $200.00 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] p_diablo@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Cries in new englandish permalink fedilink source parent [–] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 1 point 2 years ago Lol it was just a joke trying to pretend that the post wasn't because the odometer says BOOBS permalink fedilink source parent [–] ccdfa@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) How about 180k? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I got multiple SAABs (Pre GM/1991 or older) to over 1,000,000 miles. Got one to 1,500,000. Never quite hit the golden 2,000,000 mile mark though. Plenty of other people did though. Volvo even has a couple cars that made it to 2,000,000. Don't know of any other brands that will make it that far. Maybe some unicorn of a Honda or Toyota. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ccdfa@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) That's insane.
