200,000 Miles

[Josh Ortiz]

Well, I hardly post on here, but I always come on to read up on stuff. Yesterday, I hit the 200,000 mile mark on the Trac. It's an estate green 02, premium, 2wd. We bought it new with 7 miles in summer 2002 and used it on our ranch since then. My grandma decided to upgrade to a new 4 door Wrangler, so I inherited the Trac. All maintenance has been done at the same 2 mechanics, so I know whats done to it. I'm about to be 17, so it's a pretty sweet first ride. I'll get some pics of her after I do a good detail.

Congrats man, you'll love it. Especially if this is your first car. My ST is my first car...loving it. Have fun.

By the way, is it just me or does the lettering on the gauges seem kind of bold?

 

[Kevin Palmer]

It is an accomplishment. Congrats...

I'm curious if the timing chains and tensioner were ever replaced?

Good luck

Fast approaching that point in my 2003. I'm at 195ish and counting.

I gotta get driving. I only have around 75k on my 02. It's not even broken in yet.

 

[Brian Wolf]

I just hit 170k in my 02.

Still going strong.



Only major issues were the rear diff needed an overhaul, and both front bearings have been replaced.



I have done all maintenance myself with the exception of the rear diff, that was a bit beyond my means.



Congrats! Hopefully I'll be in the 200k club and still trackin'

 

[RAY VELASQUEZ]

Wow. That's like 28,000 per year. I don't drive that much. That means my ST will last me a lifetime. Congrats.

 

[swshawaii]

Very cool testimonial. That is serious annual mileage. Go for the half "M"' bro. Congrats. :banana:

Sweet! I just rolled 193K this past weekend with only a fuel pump issue once.
