well when the vehicle retire, GM should give him a new one.

that's great but it's more a statement of being driven 85K miles a year.

there are cars with 2 million miles and more miles.

Not saying anything bad, but 99% of cars don't last that many miles because they are not driven that much per year. typical 12K miles per year would take 83 years to get 1M miles. 20K miles a year would take 50 years.

One key is this is not a private vehicle, I imagine some many delivery vehicles could get that many miles but few private owned cars since pwople usually don't drive that much.

I would LOL if a new GM couldn't last as long as this old one

"Give me my car back! This one's giving me too much problems!!!"

Eh whatever. There was an MK2 VW Golf at a show many years ago, with the odometer displaying 200k miles (or maybe it was 400k?, but I think 200). The thing is, the odo only reads to 999,999, and it had already rolled over. 1.2 million miles on the stock block & head.

No matter how you slice it, that is a lot of hours in the saddle! (694 24-hour days at 60 MPH)

Five replaced transmissions aren't that great. Typical GM. Lol gotta find something to talk down on the domestics.

Other than a noise temp sensor fan for auto climate control (replaced under warranty), my Avalanche has been flawlessly reliable - no worse than my Honda experience. I have no reason not to believe it will last as long as I want to keep driving it, and well beyond.
