This is my daily driver/tow pig, 1992 1/2 ton 2wd GMC suburban with a 5.7 gas burner that has never been out...

I love my Suburban. 1990 Just turned over 200k. Still runs strong. 350 with the tow packgage, extended range gas tank and rear barn doors. One of the most useful SUV's you can own, can haul a shit load of people or cargo and tow almost anything. My daughter does'nt call it "The Beast" for nuthin'!

My 94 has 225000 and I have had to do very little to it to keep it running.

and I love being able to haul 4x8 sheets in the back and not having to worry about the weather. 8).
Hope I get as many miles out of mine as you have. How the heck did you manage to get all 3's on both odometers??

I would just take a wild guess that he set the trip at exactly 333000.0 :wink:

I guess I did ask for that one.:P I meant more the timing, I tried to get mine at 2000000 while I was in traffic and this was as soon as I could get a pic without dieing a firey death. :econfused

I set that trip many thousands of miles ago, it only goes to a 1000, so no need to wait... :P

Here is one of my '97 F250 diesel on the way home from work Friday. Hopefully it's not even half way worn out yet.

If you figure 333333 miles @ 13 mpg thats 25641 gallons.

Now just rough average of $2.00 a gallon since 1992 thats $51,282 you have spent in just gas.

Just a little something to brighten your day :P
