    I usually don't drive them that long, I like change. :) My highest mileage vehicle was a 93 Lumina(car) with 218K on it when I sold it. My current DD beater is a 98 Camry with 205K I believe. Most mileage on a truck was a 94 Chevy 1/2 ton z71 with 198K. Only one that ever had anything fail other than regular items was the Chevy. It had a trans rebuilt due to a sun shell failure(pretty common on those).

    Yep, I always heard those transmissions (4L60E) were weak in that area. Especially if the driver has a habit of shifting from reverse to drive when still rolling ever so slightly.
