Well, I have 350K miles on my Ranger with original non-rebuilt engine and trans. However I've been driving the CSVT lately as I think the timing chain went on the 2.9L. But still, that isn't a major engine job so I might still make a million.  Karl

My dad's '78 Volvo 240DL Wagon has 360,000 miles on it, still running, and we donated it to charity. He then bought an '84 240DL Wagon (same color), and it just passed 260,000 miles.

"VOLVO'S LAST FOREVER!!"...maybe, but then you'd have to drive a volvo :p
I added up all the miles my wife and I have put on our cars. From July 1986 to now its about 320,000. At that rate it would take two of us 97 years to get 2,000,000!
