"I do not own any car/truck with less than 100,000 miles on it."

“I do not own any car/truck with less than 100,000 miles on it.”
I’m there, yet again...


Until last month, neither of our daily drivers had less than 250,000 miles on them.

Wife’s Pontiac Montana met a untimely fate when a 08 Focus slid in to the intersection and my wife hit it.

Wife and kids where ok, other driver ok. Old Pontiac drove to it’s final resting spot. Focus left on a tow truck.

it was the second total out for the Pontiac. I could have fixed it, but a 01 Venture (same van) presented it’s self as a good replacement at a good price. It’s a spring chicken in our stable at 185K

The old van is resting in “wait”.. Never know when I might need a part. Just wish they where the same color if I ever need a body part.

My daily van, a 2002 Express will have 260K on it by weeks end.

I see no reason to replace it.

When I met my wife she had a brand new car.. I told her if she ever married me, that would be the last new car she owned. She married me anyways.
