MAXDOUT Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 How many miles do you guys run up to on your truck before its time to get a new one??? Quote
dunefreak Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 my trucks... gassers 97 Tahoe: 152K 96 Z71: 135K diesel 05 DMax 42K Still haven't got rid of any of em. They are all going strong. I'd say it depends on how good of shape the truck is in and how much it starts to become a money pit when its time to say bye bye. Quote
MAXDOUT Posted April 16, 2008 Author Posted April 16, 2008 I got 95k on my 99 Super-poopy but it runs like a champ. I planned on driving it into the 250k range. Is that crazy? Quote

Gazlay43 Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) it has 116k bought it with 115k tho so im doin pretty good its a toyota still has a lot more miles left! Edited April 16, 2008 by Gazlay43 Quote
dunefreak Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 That's right, Chevy baby Hell yeah. Check this out... I just now replaced the spark plug wires, cap, rotor, etc on the Tahoe at 152K! Come to find out the misfire I was chasing was only a worn out distributor gear. I could have left those ORIGINAL wires, cap, and rotor on that badboy. The Z71 still has original plug wires and injectors at that mileage too. They both run real strong. I figure if they are paid for, why not keep em. I'm not gonna get anything for em anyways. Drive em till they die! Quote

Dunefreak what about the 79 Well the 79 is more of a toy than a truck in my eyes.

777duner Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 23k on my 04 F-250 (V-10)... Does anyone have any recomendations on when to change out tranny fluid and rear end fluid...? I was shooting for 25k to change the tranny fluid, but I was wondering if I should do it sooner or more often since I tow a lot. Quote
Randog Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 05' F250 6.0l diesel = 23.5k miles 06' 350Z 3.5l gas = 12.5k miles 04' Hotrails race gas = 98.3k dunes 90% of the truck miles are to and from Dumont. The Z miles are from my 4mile trip to work and an occasional Vegas trip. The Hotrails spends most it's time in Dumont. I'm not planning on gettin' rid of any of them any time soon. I hope. I did buy the 7year warantee on the 6.0l. Sorry, some of this was Off Topic. Quote
