Great News

I, over the weekend, took a slightly longer than imagined trip to South Carolina from Louisiana. Coming back I had noticed that my 2005 Civic had broke it's 100,000 mile mark. Awsome that this car is so old yet doing so well and after being craddled in Maine, drove to Louisiana and back to Maine 11 times, one round trip to Florida and all the driving I and my girlfriend did in Maine and Louisiana. Whew... I have only put gas in it, changed the oil, flushed radiator, changed a thermostate and (seal), replaced power window motor and actuator in driver side door, and I wraped the stock wheels with 3 new sets of tires. This has been the best car I have ever owned.

Sorry no picks, you'll just have to take my word for it.

Re: Great News

Ha. My civic just turned 100k too. I got it at 97.8k and it runs like a champ. Didn't notice it was over 100k until yesterday (I've had the trip meter on). Congrats and let's hope it reaches 200k!

Re: Great News

yeah, timing belt is next. This has been a great car when you look at the bigger picture of it not costing me much. 100,000 miles is alot nothing like 300,000 or 400,000-damn. But still ill get out of it what I can and drive her staright into a wall to see if the air bags still work after however long it takes for her to **** the bed.
