this had been posted but why not..

 

87 gl 107k (a baby no doubt)

87 DL 166k (body broke)

93 loyale 159k (totalled)

 

with me behind the wheel of an ea82 since 97 , total miles for the 3 of them:

73k miles +/- and that seems conservative, but I have had other cars to try and save the old soobs.. my plans haven't exactly worked out yet but trying! :confused:

84 Turbo Wag: 148K (just a baby!)

86 XT Turbo: 180K, on its third engine. About 160k on the block, dunno how many on the heads.

Brother's 89 GL Coupe: 245K last I checked. It went for about 10k though wtihout a speedo cable :grin:

Mom's 99 Legacy L: 57K (low!)

 

I've had:

88 XT6: 144K when I sold it.

88 GL Wagon: 182K when I sold it.

 

I know they're not roos but:

96 Toyota Paseo 89K when I rolled it (lowest mileage vehicle I've ever owned)

86 Chevy Celebrity 262K (Sold it because the original engine blew a head gasket. That's high for a domestic!)

89 Ford Tempo 89K and ran like crap. Got rid of it because it was horrible to drive.

 

You made me recount all the cars I've owned in 5 years. I'm on my 5th and 7th! I hope not to continue this trend.

'87 pseudo GL-10.. (sunroof, cruise, computer, digidash.. but FWD, 3AT, NA:banghead:) 143,000.

I got her in aught-four with 106K on it, and have put almost 40 in the last 2 years.. despite being parked without license or insurance for about ten months.

 

Non-roo, the only cars Ive owned were my

 

75 datsun 280Z, broken speedo cable and an odo that goes up to 99,999.9, the odo reads 15,000 :grin: rebuild her, then about 15K later, get a speedo cable, and its accurate!

 

my geo had like 140K on it, and that was enough to kill the engine in a way that made it constantly destroy timing sprockets and woodruff keys.. Geo Storm, so it was an Isuzu.

haha funny this thread came up. saw the very first soob my dad ever owned ('83 2 dr 2wd 4spd hatch) that he sold to a chevy fanatic, but that car turned him into a soob fanatic. when my dad sold it, the passenger side carpet would get wet in the rain and the darn thing had no undercarriage basically... now has all new sheet-metal, new paint job, and 380,000 miles on the original engine. STILL a daily driver. :banana: i talked to him about selling it, but he's gonna drive it till it dies. which will be never judging by the work on all that rust. sorry for the long post, lol

89 gl sedan- 202,000

87 dl wagon- 174,000
