I'm sure I posted a previous mileage, but I just rolled over 200,000, so I figured I'd post it again.
So yeah... 200,000. Still runs great. Original engine, trans, all that jazz. No ticks or weird noises. Tiny oil leak, burns a tiny bit of oil (while sitting, thanks to valve stem seals). Doesn't overheat, four wheel drive works... can't complain, really. Previous owners (all six of them) beat the bejesus out of the thing before I got it. It's been in three accidents -- one while it was still at the dealership. I think that I might be the first owner that actually took CARE of the thing. The buckets of pine barrens sand that fell out of the chassis when I bolted in my new floor attests to how often previous owners had it off road (despite their claims that it was only used to drive to work and back; unless the guy worked in the forest, which I don't believe he did).
But yeah... it's still going.
