BIG NEWS! I've just hit 190,000 miles on my car. At this point I am even impressing myself with the kind of numbers I'm seeing. My plan to see it turn 200,000 is looking more like a reality every day.
It took a full year to get this last 10,000 miles completed. With my tires and brakes only a year old, there is no reason why I can't make it another year. The biggest problem at the moment is that I am burning oil at a rapid rate. I make sure to check my oil every 2 months or so. And it usually requires 3 quarts when I do get it checked. There isn't an oil leak because that issue had been taken care of about 4 months ago. Other than that, the car is humming along nicely. I am still very fond of it. Don't get me wrong, I've got my eye a new car. It would certainly be nice to drive something using all this new technology they've invented (back-up camera, bluetooth enabled, USB ports, multiple charging ports, 3rd row of seats, etc). I don't lack a list of features that are being included in even the base models of cars these days. But it is not time yet to say good-bye.
Fortunately, 13 years ago, I made a wise decision in what I purchased and am not tired of my CR-V yet. The car has certainly been good to me.
