I will take that anyday on any truck. That is pretty good in my book. I wonder if these people actually use their truck or treat it like a car.

I am guessing use it like a car, especially with a traveling salesman. But I guess it depends on what he was selling.

Are you guys talking about that guy Carl on the K&N website that went 1 million miles on his 91 3/4 ton chevy?

Heard K&N and chevy got him a brand new silverado out of the deal.

Id love to keep my truck as long as possible....I have a stick so, that helps in the Dodge world.

Work trucks around all that dust and dirt and grit, just have a shorter lifespan naturally. Driving on the highway does nothing but pile on mileage. Most of my mileage is highway, and we have taken some long trips out west. If you you don't drive it hard, keep the fluids changed, your vehicle will last for you.
