up past 160k on the monte, it'll get past 200k even if i gotta push it, haha. my dad's '97 voyager is at 238,xxx miles right now and it just lost the trans, but honestly we've never done much to it but change the oil & filters, hell i think it still has the original spark plugs & wires! plus its hauled firewood, engines, transmissions, dirtbikes, mowers, about 400 lbs of tools every day, and it runs about 175 miles round trip every day.
hey JJ, i found you a parts blazer if you ever gotta do a driveline swap. 383, TH400, narrowed ford 9 in with tubs & slicks, full cage, 'glass cowl hood, been setting in mount bethal for the last 8 years. i should go stop in on it, lol

By spring i'll hit 100,000 (kids=running to practice,school,friends houses, nonstop running around). So i just realized that will be 10,000 miles in 6 months that may be a bit much. i hope to get at least 200,000

About 135K on my '02 Monte and still going strong. It's hardly ever spent a day in the shop. I expect to see 300K with it. Regular routine maintenance works wonders. I plan to keep it 'til it dies.
My '94 Suburban had 200K when I sold it last year. 184K on my '90 Jag XJ-S.
My cars are aging gracefully, just like me...

Taken from my 1993 bonneville, just before the oil pan gasket blew & before its demise 1800 miles later.
I wouldn't be suprised if I make this go over that 191800 mark.. That car was ignored, drove with low oil...abused(like all first cars) The monte is my baby(i guess) I wanna keep it forever!
Not even close at 63k !
