Early this morning, my car clicked over to 100 thousand miles! But before you start advising that I start shopping for a replacement, other than the poorly designed transmission, my car is in great condition. It is still mechanically sound and visually appealing. The high miles are “highway miles” and with my 120 mile daily round trip (five days a week), the miles come fast and spin the clock just as fast.
Now, you may say “Bad tranny? That’s reason enough to sell or trade that car!” And yeah, I would have to agree with you if it weren’t for two important points. 1) the car was bought in cash in full so no monthly note, and 2) it has a full bumper-to-bumper Premium warranty from Ford. As they say, except for belts, bulbs, tires and glass (and a few other simple things), the car is fully, fully covered. That said, I am going to keep driving. Will I zoom over that 200k line? Maybe, maybe not. But for the time being, I am going to enjoy each and every worry free mile before me.
