    Here's ours....

    2016 Dodge Durango - 30,000
    2003 Ford Taurus - 133,000
    1997 GMC K2500 - 181,000
    1971 Ford Maverick Grabber - 63,000
    1949 Willys Overland 4X4-63 wagon - 64,000

    Now, that Willys is a project and hasn't moved under its own power since 1964, but that's gonna change soon.....;)

    That poor Honda Goldwing is collecting dust, I don't think is good for them to be used that little, you should consider dropping it off at my house and I'll help you put some miles on it. :D

    Don't have many on my phone, it's been sitting in the barn since I started my house remodel in 2006. But here is where it is now, floor and chassis are done, setup to use a Ford 302, around 8" of lift, gonna be a bruiser and a cruiser. Wait til you see what I have in mind for the paint....;)

    82 GMC k1500 odometer quit at 257,000 I suspect we are around the 300,000 mark
    97 Ram Sport 1500 155,000

    I don't brag about miles or pretty, I am just glad they are all paid for. I really like no vehicle payments!

    Ain't that the truth, these zero dollar car payments go a long way. I think after seeing the mileages out here that many of our members belong to that zero dollar payment club. I find it amazing how so many people seem to need a new car every 2 or 3 years.

    I considered dumping the corolla and getting a Rav4 this past summer/fall.

    Like you said...payments all over again? I'll wait a bit longer.

    As said before. They are all paid for and running. Maybe not pretty.

    The total cost of a vehicle is what you paid for it diced by the number of years you own it. Simple as that. The news ones look pretty till they go through a few winters and mud puddles and then then they look blah compared to the new new ones. It never ends.

    Would love to get a new Tundra, but all my vehicles run and paid for. Not going to give them what they want for a new one.

    Bump to top.

    The old (2001) dodge has about 250,000 miles but the odometer has been disconnected (fuse) so it's been showing 161,000 for the last 7 years....:zip:

    Any new pics or progress on the Willys Scotty Overkill ?

    I believe corollas are fetching top dollar nowadays. They seem to be pretty reliable.
