With me, i rarely even drive mine to work due to the fallout from the powerhouse stack (salt and fly ash)... it gets all over the car and reacts with the car wash. Usually takes at least two washings to get the crap off of the car. So, the Lumina sees day to day duties and that'sgot 180,109 miles on it!

work mostly, in two locations. to one it's 120 miles round trip and to the other it's 240 round trip per day. not to many major problems actually. one wheel hub, one radiator and condensor (******* rabbit, not the car...the animal!). then the usual rotors/pads and several sets of tires. have since dropped to 16's. one set for winter and one for summer. i spend more in mods than fixes...for now.

i deff need a commuter car in order for this one to last.

I had you beat anyways, lol. I had 32k after one year. I used to work for Pepsi....I was a merchandiser, so I drove (the SS) store to store on a route everyday. And Pepsi was never a fan of giving you a route near your house. At one point in time, I was driving about 30 min to get to my first store, helped the account rep work that one store, then drove roughly an hour to another county and worked a few stores up there, and then drove about an hour and a half home.....every day.

today i have 100,5xx miles on it. yup, that **** is wack!

and if you think that is bad, talk to LittleStealthSS. i think his is the same year as mine and he surpassed the 100k mark long before me.
we need a balt 100k club. i expect to be there by my 4th anniversary. my balt has 85k on it and its an 05. i should start slowing down tho. they let me go to 4 10's at work so thats 100 less miles a week i drive. altho we do drive the balt everywhere instead of the silverado since gas has gotten higher.
