What is 222222?

WOW_FCTR · 11-28-2012, 11:52 AM

That is right....the number of miles I have now driven in the SSR......

(It is sitting now while I try to find some new tires. The nearest tire shop won't put different treaded tires on...what a pain.)

WoW !!

Hey, Factor..... what have you done to the Driver seat after All those miles???
You meticulously listed all the hard parts, what about the soft parts? I have noticed a diminishing duration of "seat time" with less than half the miles you have.

Maybe my skin is too close to the bone...

Been thinking of what upholstery upgrade to increase the KMFRTFCTR....

I, too had to shop around for a tire shop to change the tire size away from what is labeled on the door jamb. Seems some of the stores are worried about liability and corporate has told them to not deviate from stock sizes. It had been mentioned here a few months back, and it seems to NOT be a Local thing and is across the Country.

Congrats on your latest palindrome....

That's a lot of miles on one vehicle. I think the most I ever put on a car was just over 50,000 on a 1982 BMW 320iS.

DOOPHUS · 11-28-2012, 01:53 PM

WOW . . .

Sorry, WOW . . . I've got you beat if you add up all of the miles on all of my vehicles since my 1987 Chevy Silverado, sold in 2005 with 128k, plus Bummer, my 1986 Jeep CJ-7, with 105k and The Doophus with 15k you get a whopping 248k miles.

LTs SSR · 11-28-2012, 02:42 PM

32Revolver · 11-28-2012, 03:15 PM

RUN ROD RUN · 11-28-2012, 04:38 PM

artsmart · 11-28-2012, 05:47 PM

WOW, WOW! I don't think mine is even at 22222

BlueStreak · 11-28-2012, 06:10 PM

A worthy target to shoot for. Congratulatipons and good luck on the tires.

REBEL · 11-28-2012, 06:20 PM

Thats a lot of times around the block in the red light district.

ssr71 · 11-28-2012, 06:21 PM

What????? No picture? It didn't happen!

Got a pic of my Silverado when it rolled to 100,000 (Jan 19 2008), then 111,111 (Nov 8 2008). I missed 123456. No more "cool" sequences for a while now.

tennesseecozydo · 11-28-2012, 06:45 PM

222,222 it's just broke in good...ready for the first oil change and new binders and maybe a set of tars. Got a good friend here in Tennessee with 584,500 miles on his Chevy Silverado, but it needs a paint job. Gonna get it painted for him if I win the lottery..550 million, he wants me to buy him a new truck. I told him NO, just a new paint job but he could have half the winnings and he could paint his own damn truck. Tennesseecozydog

WOW if that is real then these numbers are an eye opener. In terms of a 40hr working week then:

If Avg Speed is:
30mph = 185 weeks
35mph = 159 weeks
40mph = 139 weeks
45mph = 123 weeks
50mph = 111 weeks

Now THAT is some seat time!! How are they holding up.

I have done nothing to the seats....what I don't know can't hurt me right?
I did talk the local shop into mounting the tires and got my first alignment ( I believe, but could be wrong...as I am forgetful...hahaha) $990 total.
