I know of one such occurrence where the head of one of those engines was removed to replace a head gasket and the crosshatch pattern on the cylinder wall had still not worn away at 400,000 miles. 250,000 is known as "broken in" for these things. |

On the topic of mileage my Buick will be hitting 200k in the near future if I end up driving it enough. I'm not in college quite yet and I'll hopefully be driving to work more often so they'll stack quickly. |
