198,000
My truck broke the 198,000 milestone this weekend. What, we can't have odometer milestone threads?

I bought it 3 weeks ago, it had 197,740 miles on it.

I filled it up on Friday and have gotten over 200 miles off 3/4 of a tank.

1. mine is about to roll over 150,000
I've had the car since I was 17 (now 21) when it had a little under 140,000. I haven't driven much in the past 2 years because of gas prices, plus I'm away at school most of the year

2. Mine little car is at 107,000+
On hold though - it's in the shop because someone hit it. I got a nice, shiny Volvo rental though. :bounce:

4. Sure, we can have odometer miletstone threads!
198,000 is quite a milestone for a truck.

My van just hit 30,000 over the weekend.

6. My uncle had a 1985ish Tbird that got 300,000 miles on it. The dealership
had him in so they could get a picture of it for local advertising. That was 300,000 miles with no major repairs! :hi:

Toyota makes some really good vehicles. I wish they made one I could use, I miss my old Toyota.
