Time of Death: 125,222 miles

My VR commodore is stilling at 300,000 km.
Only reason I don't drive it anymore is because I got a new car, nothing wrong with the VR. I might take it for a spin this weekend, it's nice driving something that isn't pig fat.

>mfw a mate and I just completed a road trip from Brisbane, Queensland to Ularu, Northern Territory
>mfw 3200km distance
>mfw the truck already had 270,000km
>mfw it's only 1/4 into its lifespan

It's beyond me why people insist on buying cars with planned obselence, just get an older car that was fitted with an under stressed engine, the Patrol/Maverick in pic has a 4.2l I6 Diesel N/A engine that revs veeeeery slowly up to 4k RPM, they typically last 750,000 to 1,000,000km if you regularly service them and don't do some stupid mods to the engine, it's already plenty powerful.

The only problem this truck has is that it needs its injectors cleaned because at 120kp/h one of the cylinders doesn't fire every now and again, even then, it only happens if you're loaded up with 600kg of gear plus two passengers.

what? no. most cars built since the 80s can go 250k miles (>400k km) without major issues. Fuck, my dad's had three cars (an 85 camry, a 90 mirage, and a 95 pathfinder) go over 350k miles without any major transplants, just oil changes and the occasional minor repair or wear-part replacement.

>implying that's a large engine

Pretty sure the impala I had as a first car had a 3.4 v6 lmao

That blows man, as an explorer owner i'd like to apologize on her behalf.

at least it rolled trips :^)
