I love how smooth they ride too. | 2008-05-01 |
| 2000 Chrysler 300M | George Schoneman | 222,061 | 3.5 V6 4 speed AUTOSTICK | Nothing major, steering rack at 168k miles, a/c compressor at 160k miles. Normal maint and regimented upkeep. | Looks, runs and drives like a 50k mile car. One of the best cars I have ever owned | 2008-04-30 |
| 1983 Dodge B150 Ram Van | Rowan Hawkins | 225,000 | Stock LA 318 2bbl with the A-833 (OD 4) on the floor transmission | Clutches, oil changes, ball and u-joints. The bell housing (aluminum) was welded because the one time I had someone else change the clutch, they torqued it down wrong and it cracked when I drove it. | This was my first car ever. in 1998 I received it from a bus garage who used it for hauling engines and as a parts getting truck at 150K. Seven months after I purchased it, at 162K, the stub for the speedometer pinion gear in the tail sheered when the spedo cable which was resting on the exhaust bound up - I never fixed it. The mileage is estimated, but I was driving at least 20K miles a year over the time I had it. Bi-weekly trips Syracuse to Rochester (180 miles), monthly to Buffalo (300 miles) and Binghamton (150 miles), some trips to to Philly (440miles).
It had the Highway Package which consisted of the manual transmission and the 36 gallon fuel tank. I pulled it off the road in 2002 when I put an '87 B250 Ram Van on the road. I was tired of chunks of body/floor falling off when I slammed the doors. The engine still ran great.

| 1991 Dodge Grand Caravan LE | John Lubbers | 203,500 | 3.3L V6 2WD | anti-lock system components failed & replaced under warranty/recall in 2002. | Transmission started slipping in reverse & low gears about 140K miles. Doing a full tranny fluid flush and filter replacement about every 30-40K miles seems to be keeping it in check and running good. | 2008-04-29 |
| 1993 Dodge Grand Caravan | Jose & Kimberly Lara | 200,251 | 3.3 liter, 4speed | radiator has been replaced 3 times, engine rear seal replaced, rack and pinion replaced. | This van is a great work horse. | 2008-04-27 |
| 1986 Jeep cherokee | Les Brennan | 204,543 | Automatic V-6 2.8 litre | water pump...runs like a tank with 3000 mile oil service | Its my Harley and its paid for! [LOL] | 2008-04-24 |
| 1995 Dodge Dakota | Joshua | 260,000 | 5.2 port injected. 4 speed w/ overdrive automatic so its technically a 5 speed. 2wd. Dont know the model # but its a badass tranny whatever it is. I love it. and the 8.25 corporate rear end. | Pegged the speedometer in a burnout and blew a thrust bearing out of the differential. 8.25 gear. replaced the diff. Changed out the universal joints on the driveshaft(not that i had to). replaced all four ball joints, inner(not that i had to) and outer tierods. replaced leaking water pump twice. Crack in frame passenger side just behind the upper control arm. Ground out the crack w/ die grinder, welded w/ reversed polarity so the metal would "suck" in the weld rather than cover it up, and reinforced w/ a rectangular cut piece of steel welded over the repaired crack. and thats about it except for tune-ups. | the oil gets changed every 3,000 miles. Use Pennzoil high mileage 10w30. this engine has no sludge whatsoever and with 260,000 miles on it the oil on the dipstick looks new when its time for an oil change.(pretty impressive)I have not had to use Lucas or anything like that, this thing does not knock or tick. Keep in mind i race this truck all over the place and wind out every gear when doing it. This is the best truck i have and will ever own and would drive it forever if not so outdated. If Chrysler would build another Dakota like this one i would buy it right now. | 2008-04-23 |
