What kind of car is it, any major work done on it? Cause that is pretty fucking impressive mileage.


- Paper Boy - 03-16-2004

it's an elantra. i've gone through three or four trannies but the engine has been fine.


- Mad - 03-16-2004

Did you get them under warranty or did they fuck you?


- Paper Boy - 03-16-2004

the first they paid for at 75000. the one at 150000, i paid for. the one at 250000 i bought used from a junkyard.


- Mad - 03-16-2004

Almost time for a another one.


- Paper Boy - 03-16-2004

i don't know if i'll put another one in. it's a bit beat up and i haven't changed the oil since 210,000.


- Mad - 03-16-2004

Why? Do you just keep feeding it quarts of oil instead? The filter needs to be changed, but you already know that.


- Paper Boy - 03-16-2004

i throw a couple of quarts in wwhen the ticking gets too loud. i'll try to post a picture of it tomorrow. it looks like it has 300.000 on it.

I thought the tripmeter was your mileage and was wondering what kind of prissy little rich boy would have a car for 5 years and only put 250 miles on it.


- Kid Afrika - 03-16-2004

To the other extreme (no, I'm not a "prissy little rich boy"), my truck has 6400 miles on it and I've had it for 16 months. Gotta love the 1 mile commute.

i was hoping for a transvestite joke by now.

i put 43,000 miles on my Z in a year, which is why i bought the excel to take to work and back recently.
