Cold one today! When I started driving it said -19.

Also, 224495 miles on the old Hyundai. It has 32,000 when I bought it. Some time this year I will have put 200,000 miles on it. This will be a first for me. I have put 100k on a lot of cars but never 200k.

Bought my 1999 Toyota Solara with 59k on it...retired it with 283+k

Bought my 2014 Nissan Altima with 16.8k on it currently just under 214k...so 200k on this one is coming soon.

I bought a 2004 Taco with 130k on it like 6 years ago.  It had 300k on the clock when I sold it to my friend.  He bought it for his son that just turned 16 and drives it to school everyday.

I kinda miss it to be honest

Cold here this morning too @ 9F, but at least we are above zero!

I just bought a 2023 Buick Encore last year that only had 1400 miles on it as a dealer loaner.
It now has 14.5K, so with any luck I am hoping to have this one for a good while longer.  :yes:  :thumbsup:

Driving is my least favorite thing to do anymore. We drive around 6000 miles a year.

Just got my 2000 Silverado back from my daughter. First new vehicle ever purchased. Only a paltry 182k on the clock. New tranny, fuel pump and steering rack and a AC service is all that's been done to it. Engine runs like the day I bought it...once the lifter tick warms up and goes away.

Pour some Seafoam in the crankcase 100 miles before the next oil change to clean out the deposits and also add an oil catch can to the pcv. Should stop the ticking and keep the contamination out of the motor.

2° when I got home yesterday evening, but it was sunny out, so not terrible.

Helped the boy kid get the log splitter running. Showed him how to pull the the starter rope with one hand and spray starting fluid with the other.

Then I grilled taters, asparagus, and pork tenderloins on the grill, cause I'm not a pussy.

I don't blame you.
It's scary out in the world.
