You Da Man! It proves it can be done. You should list your mods, if any, and your maintenance regimen as a guide to others.

1986 SE 185,000~ (original engine until I overheated it and that motivated me towards the FD)
1993 FD 261,000 (more engines than I can count on my hands).

so total miles to date 446,000 miles.

Wow, that's alot of miles.

I don't even want to think how much I spent on gas.........

mazdagirl81 06-09-05 12:27 PM

4k mi on (previous) fb. 1,500 mi on (current) fd

Tenacious 06-09-05 01:16 PM

my car
 
MY fd has 80,435 k miles, 7k of which I have put on in the past year, but on my other vehicles:

2000 Ford Explorer(new)-145k miles(all mine!)
1996 ford Econoline Van-bought w/ 23k miles in 2002, now has 167k miles
1992 Jeep Wrangler- Bought at 92k miles, now at 178k miles

in the past 5 years I have driven.......145k+144k+86k+7k

that makes 382,000 miles in the past 5 years! sadly most of those miles are work related(except for the 7),

On average(during the summer at least) I do about 400-600miles per day, during the winter its about 100miles a day. I'm so sick of driving, but not w/ the 7 for some reason!
