![]() Or so no one tells me, but I wish they would so I would feel better. I would say that 200,000 miles is the new 100,000. In today’s manufacturing world cars can easily exceed these limits. These are accelerated tests because watching paint peel for 10 years is really boring. When engineers design a car, the parts are usually tested to simulate a 10-year life or 100,000 miles of usage. The car gets 23.1 mpg.ĭidn’t I used to pay less than a $1/gallon when I first started driving?Ĭars are generally designed to last about 10 years or 100,000 miles. That’s 4,336 gallons of gas, averaging about $3.36/gallon. In other words, it’s been around the block a few times. Everything that’s supposed to be replaced in a car is typically replaced by now. The shake, rattle and roll come from the body and not the radio. There’s a chip or two on the windshield, and maybe a crack on the fascia from that thing you ran over on the freeway. Well, what does 100,000 miles on a car represent anyway? ![]() “You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred.” It was probably a combination of driving less, lower reliability, and the low shelf life of Bondo® that kept older cars from going this far. It wasn’t impossible, but it was certainly difficult. What?!- et, tu, Tochter?īack in the “old” days, rolling over 100,000 miles was a monumental achievement for a car. Realizing that your car has 100,000 miles is like realizing that your baby daughter has started going to elementary school and is acting like a teenager. They find parking spaces, honor their credit cards, get married, have children, and call that maturity. More specifically, I am I-once-owned-8-track-tapes-and-oh-gawd-all-four-of-my-cars-are-over-100,000-miles old.ĭidn’t I just buy this “new” car a little while ago? Did I just blink away 4 years? Where the heck was I driving during all that time? And the Sign of the Cat on tv featured a different definition of Cougar than today. I’m old enough to know the Year of the Cat is not one of the Chinese zodiac years. Or these-are-not-bifocals-they’re-called-progressive-lenses old. No, I’m more like I-remember-looking-through-a-hole-in-a-camera-to-take-a-picture old. I can even still remember why I walk into rooms-usually. I don’t have my AARP membership yet, so I’m not getting the Denny’s discount. Technically I’m probably middle age, although that seems so old just to type that. Actually, any sense of time passing makes me feel old. Remember to read our wiki before asking questions.My daily driver recently turned 100,000 miles.
