Rolled 200k today!

Passed 200k on the way home from work tonight in my 06 QC.

Fantastic truck. Only had two significant failures since this post:
http://www.vtcoa.com/forums/f7/my-06-qc-passed-150k-yesterday-48983/

One was a totally integrated power module (TIPM) which killed off my power windows. The other was a belt tensioner that exploded on my way home to SC from the US Grand Prix in Austin, TX last fall. Stranded me in Augusta GA for a night - the one and only time the truck has seen a tow truck in 200k miles. The shiny Ram fell off the tailgate logo too (leaving the black background), but that shouldn't count, right?

This truck has been so great that I recently bought an 05 Ram 2500 with the Cummins diesel to take over horse trailer duty from the SRT. Not that she was complaining. Get out there and drive them! They can take it.

I think that's from the Chevy crowd....

200K miles and still going strong is very impressive..so I guess my '05 is barely broken in with 55K miles.

122k on mine, only reason it doesn't have more is it's been sitting while I'm deployed.

 

[runningonvenom]

Awesooooome now how many gallons of gas do you think it took you to get there

 

[cgperry]

lol... Thought about that. My long term average mpg is about 11.3. That means 200k miles burned 17,700 gallons of gas. I think I just made Al Gore's hit list!

And at $3.80 / gallon, I've spent roughly $67,260 on gas. %$@#!! That's almost 3 Priuses...

200k is outstanding. What oil do you use?

 

[birelboy]

That's sick.

lol maybe, some of the lower mileage 10's have had bigger problems than the higher mileage ones! I'm still on my stock transmission at 122k miles!
