400,000
It finally rolled over 400,000 for me. It's an 01 2500hd with a 6.0 and 4l80e.
Only real major work done to the truck was the transfer case was rebuilt around 395,000. This summer I'll be doing some body work on the Ole girl. I think she deserves it. |

Re: 400,000
Wow. Well done, you.
'04 Silverado 2500HD with a Duramax for me. I'm a little over halfway there. K

Re: 400,000
I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. I just enjoy the fact it's still the original motor. Just keep doing the upkeep and see how long she goes.

Re: 400,000
I can't wait to reach all 4s. That will be a fun milestone to match your 2s.
This truck still has life left in herm. I'm in the middle of a move and had to haul a 99 silverado and a 03 jetta. Just took my time didn't force it. Today I'll be hauling a fully loaded 24 or 26 foot enclosed trailer. So yea she's getting to stretch her legs and flex a bit. |

Re: 400,000
Dam I thought my 300k mile original engine and trans suburban was impressive.

Re: 400,000
Just keep up with the maintenance. And don't put a beating on it like some folks do and it'll last a good while.
