114k on the clock. At times I think I shouldn't drive it too much to keep the miles down, but every time I drive it I realize that would be depriving myself.

had a customer in last month with 398k on his 10th anniversary. it was pretty beat up though.. obviously not original, he mentioned something like 5 rebuilds using all used parts, even used apex seals... did most all the work on his own without any internet resources.

i don't think anyone is going to beat that number!

i thought my TII was pushing up there with 209k... i was wrong. (probably still one of the highest mileage TII's though)

I've got 115k on my chassis

I think the original motor lasted to around 112k, which was when I bought it... 5 years ago...

The last rebuild lasted for 3k... then spun a bearing... (it was a RR rebuild )

Just swapped another motor in it last weekend, supposedly that motor has 10k on it
