I give credit to the owner, you take care of the car and it'll take care of you. Most civics are owned by kids who dont care about the car and they just mod the crap out of them and kill em. If i had a dollar for every oil burning/bad running civic i saw... Stupid kids

Congrat's to Honda & to any auto maker that can produce a vehicle capable of one million miles...

I like Honda's, but as Keane previously posted... it is the proper maintenance & care for getting the most from one's auto investment.

Thanks for posting/sharing...

I've seen Ford and Chevy (gasoline powered) trucks that lasted a million miles. Heck, a friend of mine had a mid to late 80's 4 cylinder Mustang that made it almost to 300,000 miles. And that was without baby-ing it or anything. He's not a car guy. He just drove it, and changed the oil regularly.

It is great that car manufacturers are making cars that last longer. Actually, it's the engine that lasts longer. Personally I find that the rest of the car doesn't make it. All the plastic parts crack and break, screws shake themselves loose and the car rattles like crazy, and so on.
