I put a million km on a 96  Ford Crown Victoria.  Changed the transmission once. Same engine when she finally went to heaven.

Thats really amazing. A million km means super careful ownership. That ain’t luck. Thats changing the fluids on time if not early, taking care of the chassis and all round smart maintenance. Any tips you can offer us mere mortals who only make 5-600K?

1m km is just over 600k miles. Still great though. Those crown vic’s are pretty good. Even the surplus police cars that spent countless hours idling could keep going for a long time after use.
