High Mileage ZR2s.

[Dragon]

Greetings.
As all of you may know, I have been VERY DISAPPOINTED in the quality of these trucks. Like all new vehicles (forget the grenades in them- now even the diesels are exploding). We know how bad the issues are (even for recent years). Mr.AXE and some others will happily write pages upon pages...so yes.

Now, does ANYONE HERE have mileage above 170k to 200k and beyond (6.2 gas ONLY)?
Let me know.

I will make a poll. The results will be taken with a grain of salt- not everyone who has a ZR2 will be on here or on FB.
Thanks.
Moderators- please move this to the right section if this is in the wrong one.

I think the harder part of what you're looking for is finding anyone that has any vehicle over a 170k that's not used as a work vehicle or something along those lines.

But I'm curious as well...

This is stupid. What vehicle with 200k miles on it runs with no issues? It's a machine full of bolts...

My trucks are probably the most reliable trucks on this forum, if not in the entire world. It is because I take the time to identify the problems and resolve them adequately.

It takes time and dedication of a true professional to write about the woes and fixes required to operate equipment from any manufacturer today. Everything you buy nowadays is likely piece of shit, that requires the owner to buy more insurance, increase downtime, maintain them regularly, and deal with shody parts, software, and manufacturing recalls.

It requires pages of information and constant communication to stay ahead of the curve. Don't believe me, log onto the farm and construction forums and you'll see the same.

Everything is a POS and we are no longer living in a pre-covid psyop world. You are being bled to death by your government, Wall Street, and corporations. The consumer and taxpayer's only responsibility is to pay their tithe and get the fuck in line with their rules.

I figured out how to play the game, so I can still get what I want. Even shitty trucks can be enjoyed, but you can't be complicit. You have to bitch about it and tell these MFers to fuck right off with their bullshit. Then get in your truck and bang some gears and enjoy the day!

Well. There goes the answer.
Nobody here has high mileage.
GOT IT.

 

[AXE]

My mileage gets higher every time I drive it. Your mileage may vary!

Yes, you do have wear and tear parts.

Yes. I don't have a ZR2 but just joined to see how it is. Maybe you can kick me out.

Absolutely. Maybe the contractors or hotshot people who use ZR2s and gain mileage aren't here on the forum. But, I will have to verify in real life..

I’m not sure I understand the poll… are you looking for owners that have a 25 and newer truck with 175,000 to 200,000 miles? That’s a hell of a lot of miles for a one-year old truck to have…. I’ve got a 22 and it just turned over 60K miles… so far it’s been really trouble free but with the new directive from the NHTSA on engine build quality for the earlier trucks (and mine is an early 22) who knows what is going to happen.

This reminds me, I thought I pegged you as a bot before, but I lose track of all you MFers anyways after a while.
