Billyonaire: To be on the safe side, do not drive any car above 100. Once its approaching that calibration on the Odometer, sell it out.And the new owner will use it to cook soup right? |

ShalomNigeria:I don't think i confused useful life and warranty. I only referred to the earlier posters statement that "engines are desgined to last indefinitely". I referenced the warranty because if an engine is "designed to last indefinitely", then the warranty would exeed 100k or 10yrs. You are correct about the useful life though. With regards to even that, the useful life of most engines is probably related to the average life expectancy of 200-250k. (Japanese) and probably 100-150k (American). I believe the minute you rebuild, change anything in your engine, the clock restarts because the orginial one "died". In all, the mileage is just a counter. Whether you replace the engine or modify it, the mileage keeps counting so you could have a "danfo" with 900,000 miles that has had its engine and transmission replaced 10 to 20 times. |

Indeed no such thing as a stupid question on a forum. We are all here to learn. That said, the question perhaps should have been: What is the highest mileage a car can go before it permanently breaks down? 1 Like |

lamex20: @car-doctor u're senseless ... d poor guy only ask a question, insted u answered as a bamboo @Lame x20 You must be as sillly as the silly question he asked. There is no semblence of intellect in the question posted. Its like asking at what age should a person die? The life span of everything depends on the circumstances that prevail in its environment. Its an unfortunate decision we can't make. A brand new car that got crushed by a freight train did not detrmine its fate by itself just like a baby born today and doesn't make it to the next. The same car could out live several generations of men and will still be moving as well as it was when brand new. Man invented and built cars and so their life expectancy depends on us. We can still restore a car to its original glory even if drops into the deepest part of the ocean, falls from outer space to a concrete floor on earth or crushed by a steam roller. The point I'm trying to make is that it all depends on us and how we care about the car. For that to happen, we must be alive and able to do whatever it may take to keep it moving and you Don't need half a brain to figure that out. Car-Doctor. |

DanNafada: Indeed no such thing as a stupid question on a forum. We are all here to learn. That said, the question perhaps should have been: If the question weren't silly, why bother with offering an option? The question should have been "what's the highest mileage a car can go?" Is that not more realistic? Car-Doctor. |

car-doctor: You are perhaps too smart for your own good. The question was not silly. It was an interesting question that he simply did not ask in the right way. Hence my suggestion. |

car-doctor: So for your mind you don do correction abi? When a car reaches that highest mileage which it can go, would it not STOP MOVING? Abi it go continue from where it stop. Now over to you. Answer your question, "what's the highest mileage a car can go?" I know your answer would still be your old silly answer. Keep it up!!! 1 Like |

chuqudy: Yeah. I remember the last time you came to the clinic that you were suffering from bipolar disorder. Sorry I couldn't help you out. Sounds like you are still suffering from it. |
Re: At What Mileage Would A Car Stop Moving? by chuqudy(m): 9:20pm On Aug 20, 2013 |
car-doctor: You like high mileage cars, so I suggest that any one whose odometer reading is getting to about 1000,000 miles, should sell the car to you immediately. |

chuqudy: Only 1000 miles? I would be glad to buy it and keep it moving till I no longer can. Then sell it to you. |

platinumricky: i believe we are all here to learn. On the contrary the poster is not here to learn, he just looks for a crazy question and post it, there is nothing u can tell him to make him reason. Check his other post where he compares a murano to matrix. He was virtually insulting everyone. So nice one car-doctor. Now watch this space, he is going to insult me too. |

Gudmrn frnds,pls read all through if u can. I have been followin this topic abt mileage since yestday I commented but felt its wasn't enough so I went back & researched,here is my little knowledge/finding I pray it throws a little light. Let me define car mileage first. car mileage is total distance measured in miles which can be converted 2 other units. Let digress a bit,weight is 1 of d biggest cause of loss of kinetic energy I.e power developed in d cylinders in automobiles. an extra 100pounds increases fuel consumption to 1-2% & leads to car breakdowns. More to car mileage,with proper care like belt,oil change like every 3000 miles and periodic maintenance a car can last hundreds of thousands of miles. Hope it helps thank you. 1 Like |
