JT95 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 My wife's Volvo wagon has a nice 100,000 mile metal badge on it. It just rolled 200,000 and I've got to look into how we can get another badge for it. (The car sounds like a minature tractor, has little oomph, but is solid as a tank and impressive as hell as far as reliability.) Anyway, are there any high mileage badges fr Subaru owners? Mine will roll over 200K in 30K miles and I was just wondering. As a side note, I bumped into an old college friend last night at a restaurant. (I may have inspired him to rekindle his old Brat interests...) He's driving a 96 Chevy Silverado and it's got about 218,000 miles on it and he said he's not done a thing to the engine yet. (There was a past discussion on American trucks because the engines didn't last that long but were cheap to replace.) I was impressed, considering it had been a work truck before he bought it.

Sweet82 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 It would be in Subaru's best interest to come up with that sort of thing. Then issue them free of charge at the dealerships to qualified customers? It will never happen. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbchux Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hell yeah Noah, that would be cool Yea!! I've got 3 over 150k, and one that's 220k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrian Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Yea!! I've got 3 over 150k, and one that's 220kNow that's badgeworthy. 100k? Much less so. I bet about a quarter of the cars on the road, including American and even Korean cars, have over 100k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johngenx Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Since time began, Mercedes has done a mileage recognition program. At 250,000km, 500,000km and 1,000,000km you visit a dealer to have your mileage verified, fill out a form and within a few weeks you recieve a nice grille badge, certificate and pin. Subaru should do the same, and it would be unique among Japanese brands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
