Default 223000 mile ext cab kill

Ok, so i know this is a boring kill compared to the guys running 12s and 500hp, but anyway my truck just has the mods in the sig, and i was out after my schools football game and i see this kid that was a senior last year and has a riced out civic (im pretty sure its a si). Well i catch up to him cause i have always wanted to run him for ***** and giggles. well we pull up to a light and after the light is a pretty good hill. well the light turns and we go, as soon as we get to the hill we stay even, cause hes probibly half the weight of me. well as soon as we get to the top of the hill im gone... i put almost two car lenghts on him screaming at 5500 rpm. overall im proud of my really high milage 4.8!

A kill is a kill. Glad to hear it's still running strong with that many miles

yep it still gets 60 oil psi when driving and only burns about 3/4 a quart every 3000 miles or so!

This thread reminds me of a guy back when I first joined who had a procharger on his 250000 mile truck and it had been running great for years!
I wonder who's got the most mileage on this site?

I never own a truck long enough to even compete in something like this LOL

really happy with the rig now, hopefully it will last more than a few years.

Nice high mileage kill!!! Keep the oil changed and keep it clean and you'll be getting more. I laugh ever time someone says my truck is going to blow up if I race someone because it has 250k on the clock. These things are damn near indestructable. Get some BOOST and keep it up!
