It's official! 500K miles!
 
Happened last night at 8:00pm coming back from DC in Aquia, VA, off Exit 143A:

If that's legit, that's very impressive. I'd sent it into Honda.

well, my Ford van has almost 300K, still running strong. The best part about this car is that it has the factory interior, NOTHING is falling apart, creaking, or even cracked: absolutely mint!

I really disagree

My friend had an Econoline, like 1991 or 1992 vintage that he bought with 180,000 miles for $800 out of the Trading Post.

He put another 100,000 miles on it until he got rid of it for something with better gas miliage.

Aside from replacing brakes and water pumps it just kept on going.

There was a dude over on the B15sentra forums that had a 2000 or 2001 Sentra SE (sr20de) that had over 500k on it as well, he sold it and as far as i know it's still running.

Aren't there some Volvo's with over a million miles? 500k is really impressive.
