FERTHER had 267k miles when I bought it. Ran good but used oil like crazy.
I had the motor redone at 280k and turned it past 300k not long after.
Unfortunately I didn't keep an eye on the trans fluid and burned up 5th gear.
Fortunately I found a used trans and had it put it.
Going for 400k!
just yesterday passed, 500,000kms. it had a rebuilt engine put in at around 380,000. The previous engine was still going, but i was given this new build for free, so i threw it in. as far as i know, transmission is original.
to get to 500k, there is way more involved than engine/transmission. that's the easy stuff.
Just hit 180K on my 1986 push button 4wd! ALL stock - except for the newer motor that was put in by the people that I bought it from. ( or they just had the head re-done and they charged them fer a new motor! not sure)
Keeps rock'en down the road! I get about 28 MPG around town!
About to hit 260K on mine. No idea of history on this car, but it burns oil and needs to get a swap at some point. Wondering if it's completely worth it since this RT is kinda beat, would be nice to find a cleaner one in the next year or so, we'll see
