Highest Mileage FE Vehicle?
Everyone post up the mileage on your FE vehicle! Who's got the highest?
I bet I'm in the running - I'm about to roll over 257,000 miles on The Beater, and I'm still averaging over 40 MPG. |
I am just under 180k on my VX. But it does run like crap.
|
I had 240k miles on my Accord when I sold it a year and a half ago. I still see it around town.
The Blackfly just rolled past 11,000 km :) I think basjoos has us all beat though. He's high-mileage in multiple ways. |
349k+ on my beater VW, 245k+ on my pickup, and 165k+ on the Camry. Once I finish the engine swap and move (hopefully soon) I should start racking up the miles on the VW again.

230k on my hatch... probably the least out of all you guys
|
194K on the Festiva .... just broken in good, as they're supposed to last 300-400K. I've got a spare engine and tranny so I should be good for the next 15-20 years.
I recently sold my Turbo Coupe TBird at 251,756 miles on the original engine and it's still going with 260K on it now (I got 27-32mpg out of it). |
121,000 on my saturn
123,000 on my mazda |
Just turned over 200,000 last week...thought I was doing pretty good till I saw this thread. :)
|
Yeah, me too. My Laser turned over 200k miles a couple weeks ago. I thought that was pretty good.
|
426,000 miles on my 92 Civic CX.
|
231,800 on my VX, origonal engine with perfect compression, and 140,000 on the current tranny, and the mpg keeps going up.
I did finely get a low mileage car, 160,000 on my new 1983 civic hatch, I wonder if it's broken in yet. |

I know this doent count but my brother is a Honda Tech at the local dealers. He once bought and Accord with 624,000 miles on it just so he could tell people he had a honda with 600k on it. I ran fine but he sold it because he hated the 4 door look.
|
I know there was a sl2 at the saturn dealer with +400,000 miles on it that looked better then my old saturn.
|
I've got jsut over 316K miles on my VX. Still the original motor and transmission. Still averaging jsut under 50mpg when we have 15-20mph winds and sub 30degrees F temps.

But when the "guys" are all bragging about how many miles they have on their vehicles . . . THIS IS GAS SAVERS not GAS BURNERS!! So I thought some may be missing the point!
|
I take your point.
But I'd also wager that most of the people here with high miles vehicles bought them second-hand (or third- or fourth-hand) with the high miles already on them. I don't think you can conclude that they're all driving "excessively" just from the odometer values posted. |
