Question

What was the highest mileage you ever achieved on a car's odometer that you owned?

Answer 1

My 1984 F-150 p/u had 198,000 miles on when I sold it in 1999 for a new F-150. That truck had the 300 cid six banger engine in it with a 4 speed manual trans. I never had one repair on that engine except for tune-ups. I sold it to a painter friend of mine, and he used it for another 5 yrs before he sold it. I've lost track of it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was still running.
