5k miles on my 2011 Subaru Impreza
146k miles on my 1990 Toyota Celica

My dad's truck has a little over 400k miles on his 2002 Toyota Tundra. Just replaced his timing belt for the first time last month. Crazy.

Impressive on the Tundra… surprised that hadn't changed the timing belt every ~125k miles.

1992 Toyota Celica GT-S with 284k miles [just dropped off at shop for alternator went out on way home tonight 😡],
1999 Celica GT convertible with 120k miles, and a
2005 Honda Odyssey with 115k miles.
Also a '92 Chevy S-10 Blazer 4x4 with 150k on odometer, but its on its 4th engine so the mileage doesn't really count… 😛

I used to use that in all of my cars until I bought my Subaru; it resulted in significant leakage. I've switched to Castrol GTX High Mileage and haven't lost a drop since. I'm still not sure whether the problem was real or imagined, but since I change my oil fairly often I don't think it's a big deal either way.

I would say obscure British sports cars, but there aren't very many of those manufacturers left.

Bristol, if you want to be an elitist curmudgeon.

2003 GMC Yukon XL 3/4 ton 8.1l - 155,000

2002 Saturn SC1 - 95,000

Both going strong, and to bring it into MacRumors context, both have Bluetooth kits for my iPhone 4S.
 
Here we go; I'm saving money for something new.

In response to a few of the posts above about oil, it's a Toyota Camry with the 2.2L Inline 4-Cylinder. I've been using either Castrol GTX High Mileage or Pennzoil High Mileage since 85,000 and no issues so far. I'm at 139,999 with minimal maintenance.

126k on my 2006 Honda Ridgeline

I plan on keeping it for a long time (until it can't be repaired anymore). My wife gets the next new car.

I have an old 1991 Civic used only for my job. Just turned over to 1,100,128. 😀

Paint is so faded and it looks like hell but that thing keeps on going and going!

You should contact Honda. They may just give you a new Civic. They gave this guy a new Accord for hitting 1 million on his old Accord.

Congrats! First Jeep?



1989 Jeep Wrangler ~117,000 (hasn't passed emissions in over a year...)

2005 Honda Civic ~74,500 (bought it just over a year ago because of the Jeep)

I'll run the Jeep till it dies, then revive it.
The Honda... well, it's boring.
