Turned over 199,000 today. I will very likely turn over 200,000 miles on it next month.

Andy,

199,000 miles impressive! Keep her going. So that will make mine a low mileage garage queen at 115K.

Just what I would call routine maintenance. Pads and rotors, ball joints,
replaced the sunvisors (died from floppy ear syndrome), shocks, tires and wheels of course. An opti or two (tune-up). Otherwise just drive the living crap out of it. Starts every time right away, uses no fluids and the only things it burns are the rear tires.
