I guess time will tell, but I’m hopeful I can get it to over 300,000 miles. That said, I believe all vehicles today should be built to last at least 200,000 miles with routine maintenance. Reaching that mileage isn’t uncommon anymore, especially with how people use their vehicles—either for...

I used to own a 2003 Chevy Silverado Extended Cab with an 8-foot bed and the reliable 5.3L Vortec engine. I bought it used in 2004 with just 34,000 miles on it and held onto it for 20 years, putting over 235,000 miles on the odometer. During that time, it saw the usual repairs—fuel filter and...
