congrats on that milestone.

daneisthegreatest · 07-29-2009, 02:15 AM

wow, what year is it? how did you put so many miles on it? congrats, how is it holding up?

**TheQuietThings** · 07-29-2009, 04:03 AM

only 800k more to go!

Its an 05 which went into service in April of that year. We were hit in the driver side quarter panel, with damage up to the door, in Jan 06. This required about $3800.00 in repairs (including a little custom paint - nothing like some of you folks do).
When I purchased the vehicle it was, and still is, my intent to put 300,000 miles on it.
I just bought a somewhat collectible Buick Reatta to use as a backup, as I'm sure, sooner or later, Camorittaville will let me down and require some sort of repair.

RESPECT DUDE! You definitely deserve it. And respect to Toyota.

My box was my first new import car and I'm never going back to American cars again. Specifically, from now on, the only cars I am going to be buying are Japanese cars MADE IN JAPAN. I have heard a lot of people are having trouble with their US-made Acuras so I'm staying away from that.

**Sciond** · 08-05-2009, 11:31 PM

wow nice I am about 85,000 behind you with nothing major either

LowerLevelMan · 08-06-2009, 11:28 PM

I'm at 107,053 on my '06 xB (May, of that year). I average about 2,800 miles per month. 58 miles to work,.....same amount home. I just changed the coolant. I have YET to change the brakes. One problem - the driver side door froze in the closed and locked position. Sucked crawling over the passenger seat and manual stick! Still, that was only an $189 repair. I'm still getting over 33 mpg. Decent little economy car! I dream about 200,000 miles, or MORE. But, I also dream of owning a Mini Cooper Clubman. Hmmmmm, ....... maybe both?! (hehehehe)

P.S.
What the heck is this "Camoritaville"? I did a Google, but got butkus.

All my cars have been/are named using Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville.
My xB's color is Camo. So "CAMOritaville"
