Love this man! Gives me hope that mine will last at least through the term of the loan, haha

Just remember he's driving like 250 miles a day to get those numbers. My Yaris will not see 100k in 16 years at the rate the miles are going on. I dont expect things to hold up as well.

Try over 360 miles per day, 6 days a week (I believe he said he works Saturdays).

You're right though, don't expect the same durability results if it takes you 20 years to go 400K. Time is just as much a killer of cars as mileage is.

That's true ... I didn't think about that.

Either way, it's still impressive; if for nothing else just the knowledge that we can almost literally keep the car driving 24/7 and it will just keep going and going. haha

(OT: I like your signature)

^ Nice!!

Car looks brand new although it does have fresh paint.

IllusionX · 04-09-2010, 12:10 PM

hmm.. it has a 09 body kit!

Thai_Dang · 07-01-2010, 04:54 AM

Lol 400k, that's a mind numbing amount of driving. Congrats! Be careful on the highway, 120mph is a felony i think??

Wow that is amazing! Yotaz for the long haul!

I told my Honda driving buddy about it at work here and he was amazed, showed me this article where a guy clocked in 480k

With the mediocre seats, 400,000 is amazing!

Well, finally got an update off his YouTube page.

Unfortunately, we've seen the extent of is crazy mileage as he is no longer doing the courier work.

He stands at 410,000 miles but is only driving normally now.

At 400K, you have almost spent as much on gas as the car costs.....impressive.
