200K!

[Bob Dillon]

My '99 SLE turned over 200K yesterday. This has been the best car I've ever owned. Never had a major repair!

Never needed an alternator or starter. I replaced the fuel pump at 80K because it was making noise, and did a few piddly little things like replacing the fuel tank sender and heater core, but overall, it's taken nothing but maintenance items.

I may just keep it and drive it until the wheels fall off out of plain curiosity.

ETA: Whoops, forgot, I did install a sleeved UIM at 90K. It hadn't failed yet, however, so I guess that could be a maintenance item.

That UIM is preventive maintenance every L36 needs. That doesn't count against you.

Never an alternator? thats impressive! Seems every GM I've had has an alternator appetite.

Congrats though! thats a milestone

345K (and going) on my original alt and starter.

Travis, your car doesn't count. It just doesn't.

275,5xx and counting. (on what is believed to be original drivetrain?) Did the UIM in January I'm just hoping I caught it soon enough.

My '97 is still on its original starter, exhaust and struts. Alternator changed 1x. But mine is barely broken in at 108,000

188k, both alternator and starter replaced once.

Still going, but its getting rusty....

265,000!

Congrats on the milestone!

Travis, your car doesn't count. It just doesn't.

Definitely agree there.

I was hoping I could do 200k eventually in mine. Only made it to 84k :(. Guess I'll have to find another one to break that milestone in!

Congrats, keep up on the miles!

An intake manifold is not maintenance no matter how you cut it...

But *dang* keep the miles going! Makes me wish I still had my 1993..
