Yeah, she drove from Desert Hot Spings CA to Bakersfield CA just about every weekend for alot of years. The spedo cable was broken for about a year, so it really has a good bit more. The car still drives and stears very tight. Original everything. Doesn't smoke, doesn't burn oil, never had any major engine prob's. Only thing wrong is a very cracked dash. I hope to get another 250k before having to do anything to it; who knows?

Nice! Just another testimony that Nissan built one tough motor (when taken care of).
