Moms 02 Suburban has 295,000 on it. Stock untouched motor, trans, rear-end, and brakes. Yes even the brakes are original and in good shape.

We see them all the time go around 200k miles. The 2000-2002 models for some reason last a hell of a long time. Now the parking brake doesn't work, and hasn't for some time.

110K on mine, uses no oil between services either. Been running synthetic since it hit 1K miles. No complaints about the motor here.
