Who has the highest miles thread.

[WHITEOUT]

I love seeing this thread. Great to see these rigs running strong still with some of these high miles. Gives me confidence knowing how long these can last if taken care of correctly.

'01 Suburban LT autoride 179k.......still going

Not a Tahoe or Yukon but I have a 1992 Bonneville SE with 945,529 and still going strong. Flushed the Radiator and put a new Thermostat and runs great. Its starts right up in -30 weather but with a little help with a plug heater. But I would get under $500 for it so Ill keep it till she dies, I bought it in 1993 with 189,090 miles on it. Replaced 3 Water pumps, 2 alternators and the obvious plugs, wires, serpentine (4) and break pads 2 times but it used zero oil and runs strong. Who ever designed the 3800 is a genius. I replaced everything on my own. SO total repair cost never reached over $800. For 20 years of 22MPG you cant go wrong.

My 03 Tahoe has 190xxx, I just bought I with good faith and experience of my prior GMC Yukon (193xxx) that was totaled only because insurance claimed repair was worth over value. If I had the money I would of fixed her. Right now she's running high RPMs before 2nd but I will change the 1-2 servo and hope that's it.

I have 185k on my 2000 Yukon SLT 5.3. Got it from a buy here pay here so I didn't really know what to expect.

Thousands of miles later I trust it to take me anywhere. Everything works beautifully on the truck (minus the fuel gauge) and it's still in phenomenal shape exterior/interior wise. Burns about a half quart of oil every 3k miles which is great.

I'm wondering what can I do to prevent mines from burning oil fast. Lately I find myself adding a couple quarts before every oil change? I'm sitting at 203k

I've always been told that if people could accept burning a quart of oil every 1000 miles the engines would last much longer. I know the Northstar motor is actually designed to burn a quart every 1k miles.

I have a 2003 Yukon SLT 4x4 with 195,000.
Borrowed a 2004 Yukon XL Denali with 215,000 for the weekend.
The guy has been trying to sell it for a few months and he offered to trade even up. Mine has new tires the denali needs tires. The extra space would be nice but I'm not sure.

255K on my 01 SLT 4X4 5.3l with no major issues. Starting to look on forum about motor swaps though. Still no issues just want to get ahead of it.
