139k on OEM battery on the G is UNHEARD of!! ask anyone here and im sure 99% of them/us had the battery go out before 70k easy... looks like everything in your car is going to last longer!

 

No more jinxing

 

I think time may be more a factor than mileage here kool. Since his mileage is mainly highway, it's getting thorough and consistent charging on a frequent basis, which is an excellent lifestyle if you're a battery. My '07 is still on the original battery, but I'm only at 59K miles. As time passes, I keep thinking it's gotta be getting tired, but at 5 years old now, it shows no signs of sluggish performance whatsoever; still whips the engine briskly to a start as it has always done. I just checked the cells in the battery the other day and they were all just below the recommended level per the indicator , so I topped them all up with distilled water. It will be interesting to see how long this one lasts.

 

^ thats a good point about the hwy driving, didnt even think about that, thats a whole lot of stress taken off the battery for the majority of those miles compared to ppl who drive more within the city with stop-n-go traffic

 

Almost there!! Just took this pic 5 min ago!! 49,000

 

Rigt behind you w/ 44k now

 

ahahah i don't drive my car as much anymore!! From around 75miles daily to less than 15miles daily! I appreciate my car even more when I get from work and drive it!! It feels like the first time!

March 25 - 48,339
April 26 - 49,000

 

I have about 78,000 on mine, I was really tempted to trade this for an 11 Accord w/ 12k miles (+1500 dollars) a few days ago... Don't know ... but a replacement engine will kill my budget....

Car runs great, Syn Oil every 3500 - 5000 miles.... all fluids, rear brakes once, new battery once, a bunch of tires, i think 5 sets in the back, 4 in the front, 17.5 - 19 mpg.... premium gas

(sorry for bad formatting in a rush)

 

^ but a after a engine re-placement wont have to worry as much anymore just the fact that you yourself knw that the car will only last you for more years coming

 

I have put 30k on mine over the past 1 1/2 years. Started at 43, now at 73. Had a front axle leak and twisted power wire in the steering column causing all steering wheel controls to be inop. Spent tons of $$ on basic maintenance. Services, tires, brakes etc... So far so good. Car has proven to be a quality build IMO. Motor runs great and tranny shifts hard because of my tuning set-up. I've put 10k on since my tune. I am wondering what kind of longevity I will get out of my tranny with the tuning set-up ive got. I will be getting a minor de-tune coming up on the 9th. (Before my road trip to VEGAS)

 

You should drive and enjoy your car more. Let ppl see your awesome G on the road

 

I got a few things in my head at the moment Yoshy! A house, a DD, Another baby in the oven! Feel me dawg!! lol

 

Still rocking grad school and just bought this G (cash down!) after saving up from 4 years of undergrad.
Walk to work everyday so my G is my weekend treat, bought it with 38,285 on the odo on Dec 22 and today it's at 40,406.
2121 miles / 128 days = 16.57 mi/day.
No intent to brag but it's great only having to buy gas once a month!

 

True, but it's also great to be able to enjoy the car more than just on weekends (not bragging ).

 

So my car has 78K on it..but engine has 13K on it..so is my car low or high miles? lol
