My car just went over 100k miles….

[Mesarthim]

Second car I’ve owned to have driven over 100,000 miles (160,934 km for you euro folk)

America: fuck yeah let’s fucking drive everywhere!

What year? My old 2003 Camry was somewhere around ~130k when it started giving me problems.

I'm at something like 86k on my current vehicle. The plan is to keep driving it until it either dies or doesn't make sense to put repairs into.

Those don't last here. Everyone who drives them does 120 and has virginia tags.

Good job lummo. You take care of your car.

Meanwhile, my 2019 Hyundai is just barely at 14,000 kms

shadowalk does not drive it the car often

[shadowalk]

Got it 4 months before the pandemic hit and the workplace set us all up for remote working. Now, we got a hybrid work schedule and it's still not enough to significantly add to that mileage. I should probably do a road trip somewhere outside the city soon.

two weeks of my upcoming trip in the UK-Ireland is all road trip, from london over to ireland via sussex, winchester, somerset, then wales, over the ferry to cork, galway, cliffs of moher, then back via dublin. i rented a "medium SUV" and let's see what they give us. last time i rented in the UK they gave me a brand spankin new Peugeot which was a blast from the past, my mum and i had an old one when i was like 6-7 years old, a Peugeot 504. that rental had the smoothest manual transmission i have ever used in my life, it was like, i can't even explain it. it felt like you weren't doing anything at all, you know. so smooth

Old Euro cars seem to have really good manual transmissions. We had a Mercedes W124 back when I was younger. It was a 260E with a 4-speed manual and that one had the best manual transmission I ever experienced.

My current Hyundai has a 6-speed manual transmission and so far, I'm really loving it. It's snappy and you can really feel the gate's hold once you get into gear.

i fucking hate the US auto market because manuals have gone almost entirely extinct in recent years (also true of sedans/couples generally, trucks and SUVs are 80-90% of what's on offer now). most manufacturers have ditched them entirely outside of a handful of pricey performance models, and the handful of inexpensive-ish models that do offer them only do so in extremely limited configurations

we're sitting around 140k on our 09 toyota corola

[Z's bouncy tits]

One of my good friends has that exact same model of corolla as his daily ride. He bought it brand new in 2010 but it's the same E140 body like yours except he got the lowest trim - 1.6L engine, no backup sensors/camera, no leather seats, no auto climate control, standard stereo, knobs/buttons everywhere, and 6-speed stick shift tranny. But his is the most bulletproof corolla that I know - 130,000 kms and he does regular PMS at the original dealership. I've driven it a few times and I must say it still drives like almost it's brand new. The 6-speed manual shifts effortlessly even after all these years just as you would expect from those immortal Aisin transmissions.

I was trying to buy it off from him a few years ago but he didn't want to sell it.

The 2az and 2ar engines were fucking indestructible.
