When i got my truck i was told that it had 82,000 original miles on it, i just passed 90k yesterday. With all of the work and problems ive had with it and the things i am finding i am believing it is actually 190,000 miles. It used to be an Oregon government truck and the previous owner bought it at a government auction so they could have told him anything and since the odometer doesnt have a one hundred thousand didgit, i will never know. So ill put mine down as 190k.

The van has 131K and the truck has 240~ish. Took the speedometer off to freshen it up and broke it, so best edumacated guess is 240K. I am the second owner of both vehicles so I know it's not more. Bought the van with only 13.5K so we have definitely gotten good use out of it!

Oops! I just received the old title for my car(from one of the past owners) and in 1987 it listed the mileage as 97,641, so I guess the mileage now is 182,000. :shock: The car is in Amazingly Good shape for that kind of miles.

I don't want to know how many are on mine, I have 94k on the clock but the previous owner has seen it roll over once, so I'll put down 294k. It was a county motorpool vehicle and then a child services car, then was a daily driver for a bunch of other people. I bet this car has changed hands more times than you can count on your fingers!
