Been busy working my new job at BMW; hence my sudden decline in posts... BMW's will keep you very busy. They tend to break, ever couple of miles. And BMW owners without money, pay to replace the parts, BMW owners with money, buy new cars when they break. Very busy!

Awesome! Here's to another 100k
 My old '93 Surburban 4x4 had 187k on it when I traded it in for the '03 z71 pickup, and was still running strong! |

Some of them GM products sure can go the distance... On my 90 Chev 3/4 ton I put 274000 miles on it before she blew. An those wernt easy miles most were put on pulling a 20' goose neck trailer loaded with 20k pounds of seed.

I think preventative maintenance is the key to longevity. My 1500 Z71 has 130K and runs strong. I think us enthusiasts may keep a better handle on things. I know I have days I look for something to run to the parts store for and a project to do. (Like my rear diff fluid change). Congrats on 200K!
