My dad's 02 had 375K on it when he traded it off for an 05 Z71. He still got $2,000 for it lol. The 05 already had well over 200K on it. My 07.5 has 90K. I don't plan on getting rid of it any time soon.

Ive had 2, My 00 Z71 had 250k and my 01 Z71 I have now has 211k and neither one has had much trouble, I have the service records for both and the only thing between the 2 trucks was knock sensors and fuel pumps, They are very good and reliable trucks! I also have a 01 5.3l motor I bought that has 150k and when I tore it apart the engine was still in the factory specs with that many miles! it blew me n my gpa's mind that a motor with so many miles had hardly any wear on the whole motor! I have nothing bad to say bout em.

The black truck in my sig is just about to hit 177,000 miles. Pretty much stock but just had a cam swapped in and the heads were also milled and its now up from 9.5 to 10:1. Made 300hp/310tq through stock cats and manifolds with stock trans and converter.

My 99 sierra currently has 157,xxx on it and climbing fast the past few months since it has become DD and no longer a garage queen. lol. Runs great and probably my favorite out of all the newer vehicles i have owned.

Mine's up to 161,XXX.
I'm at that dreaded "Do i fix the lights out on the dash, cracked console, blown speaker, worn out weatherstripping, chipped paint, etc and keep modding the engine?' versus "Do I buy something newer?" stage.
As soon as I convince myself to stick with it, I see a 5.0 Mustang in a parking lot, or a new colormatched Sierra Denali...
As soon as I convince myself to buy something else, I look at my bank account and student loan debt....
Sigh.
