Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Back in '07, when I bought a new HHR panel, I drove it from Ohio to St. Louis. It turned it's frist 1k miles just as I was approaching the Gateway Arch. I took a pic of the odometer, but I can't find it now.
In all my years of driving, I have never rolled one over 100k. I have owned them with that many, but never did it myself. I even owned a Nissan Sentra that nearly made it to 200k. It was totally my fault, but it died a painful death 3 miles short.

It's funny that you mention it. I don't think that I ever put over 100K on a vehicle. And I had plenty. My first wife had a Sentra and put at least 200K on it. That thing was bulletproof. I paid $4,400 for it from Hertz Rent A Car. It was practically new. And she drove it to death. I don't know what happened to it. She took off and I never saw either one of them again. Buh Bye.

Thank God and Nissan she's gone ???


I don't think I've put 100K on a vehicle either - mostly because they usually have more than that when I get them

Except maybe my old GMC Truck, but in hours not miles. Driving a lot at 15mph in 2nd gear has to put a lot of "miles" on the engine. It still ran okay when I quit hauling logs but I think it was starting to get tired.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I bought an '05 Corolla right when they came out in August of '04. I watched it turn over both 100k and 200k miles. It looks like crap now because I spent 3.5 years working out of town and nobody in the family seemed to think that it needed washing or waxing in between the 3-month intervals when I did get back home. It's in good shape except for the paint. :/

To tell you the truth she was the best ex I've ever had. She didn't take anything or mess with me. She just left. I wonder about her sometimes. I can't find anything about her online I don't want to bug her or anything. I just still care for her. I'd just like to know if she's still alive. Something tells me that she isn't. I just get that feeling She rolled pretty hard. Tough chick. Mean as hell. She tried to kill me...No kidding. She really did. She was a wild ride.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I probably turned over 100k on every vehicle I've owned... if it was under to begin with. I have to get my pictures from my old computer. I pulled over to take a picture of my '92 flipping over 300k. Maybe it was a video? Now I'm curious. Time to get those pictures moved.

There really is a bigfoot. I have this picture I took personally
