FL to TX?

170,000 but it's mostly highway.. back a forth from FL to TX every week.. I'm the original owner and nothing has happened yet *knock on wood*.. Runs better than ever as of now.. very pampered.

Wow thats a haul from where in TX to where in FL?

Just for grins, how many engine hours do you have? I'm curious because it was, like mine, a previous municipal vehicle. As stated in the hours thread, mine has over 12,000 with less than 100k miles.

01 Tahoe LS 5.3 125K

New front blower motor.
New rear blower motor.
New front heater core.
New rear wiper motor.
Fixed some dash bulbs
Had low speed anti lock issue fixed under recall for free.
Trans flush, and filter.
4WD normal service.
Engine has had nothing done to it. Might change plugs but it runs beautiful.
Slight howl coming from front may be a wheel bearing but they are tight.

I won't win any high mileage awards but right at 111k as of today on our 07 Burb. Just bought it last summer and plan to have it for a very long time so hopefully we'll eventually see it hit the 300k mark :shrug: We'll see I guess :)

My 02 has 15x,***. Gauges and PCM have been changed so I have no real record of mileage besides adding the mileage from gauges together lol.

Never had a problem until I hit 120k. Pulled out of blockbuster burning off the tires to impress a homeless guy and the rear end locked up and started a chain reaction and tore up the trans. Replaced the trans and put in a after market gear and LSD and been truckin along ever since. My hoe has had a rough life since I owned it since I was 21. Used to take it to the track every weekend to piss off hondas lol.

01 Z71 Tahoe had 154,*** and sold it in April 2010. The only thing that went out was the starter around 100k miles. My 08 Tahoe LTZ currently has 34,*** and nothing has broken... yet (knock on wood).

Last summer we sold our 99 Denali (right before buying our 07 Burb). At time of sale it had 180k+ miles on it and was running extremely well. My brother-in-law now has it and drives it daily. He has a long commute so I'm sure there's probably over 190k on it now and running good. It's one of the cleanest OBS rigs I see these days. Only sold it to have more room for when we have a third kid.

These vehicles will last forever with the proper maintenance. It seems like my body will rust out long before the frame or engine quits on me. So far I have 134,000 on my 04 yukon,
