JUst bought an 89' Suburban 1500 with 5.7 TBI v8. Odo says 95K but records show it has to be at least 195K. To my great surprise it runs very smooth and has a lot of pickup.
This thing is built like a freaking tank. Hoping it'll last me at least another 5 or so years. It's not my daily driver but will serve as my doggie hauler. Not enough room on my car for 3 big dogs. Plenty of room in this. :-)

We have about 270,000 miles on all of our vehicles. The International has over 500,000 miles on it.The 1989 had about 800,000 miles on it. I put a new long block 6.5 non-asrirated in at 300,000 on the 6.2I use 5w30 Amsoil in everything & Baldwin, AC or other high quality filters. I also run FS2500 or Amsoil bypass filters. IT used to be that the FS2500 was hands down the better filter. Amsoil is said to have improved their newer bypass filter elements but I haven't really paid attention since I started using them. I go 20,000 miles per oil changeI also use synthetic grease

My 1998 Z71 That I traded this year
I had a 1998 z71 all orignal motor tranny and 3.42 rearend that I traded in, although very worn out at 299725k What a great truck! I only put a fuel pump in this truck! The tranny started to die on the way to the dealer raming into 2nd gear developed a cylinder 4 miss and the rear diff was making noise. A very well used truck WISH I KNEW WHERE IT WAS I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE IT BACK!!!!
When it rolled over 299k

1984 Chevy K-5 as of today 638,212 miles on the Original engine! No rust! only thing ever replaced was the drivers door. Keep the salt off and the oil changed and they will last forever!
1999 Chevy Suburban, 226,000 mile no rust, runs great. Now my tow vehicle and want to hit the million mile mark

I've only had my Lumina for a little over a year now, but i absolutely love the car even though I have gotten angry with it at times also, but who of us hasn't?
I've got 164k miles on mine so far and have put 20k on it since I have bought it
Many new parts and many plans for this car's future. I have spent a lot of time, money, blood, sweat and tears into this thing. I'm gonna keep it for as long as I can
-new radiator
-new alternator
-new A/C Compressor
-4 new tires
-Sony Explod stereo
-Thrush Turbo Muffler
-Sunpro Tachometer
-aftermarket driving lights under front bumper
