I have a 227k 2500HD 6.0 gasser. I know that's a baby here. With the nut jobs of oils that we are who's pushed the envelope farther?
Highest mileage vehicle?

Still, there are others......

That’s amazing. I’d like to know their routine.

My colleague has Skoda Scala 1.0 TSI 95 HP gasoline + LPG from 2019 and few weeks ago reached 550k mi (900k km). He changes oil every 6200 - 7500 mi (10 000 - 12 000 km) when he stays overwhelmingly on the highways, and every 5000 - 5600 mi (8000 - 9000 km) in the months with more mixed driving city / highways.
I have Skoda Fabia Estate (station wagon) with 1.0 MPI 60 HP gasoline + LPG from 2022 and made it only to 55k mi (90k km), but my uncle has the same car and engine (but in hatchback and 75 HP version, also with LPG) from 2016, and at the beginning of this year had 460k miles (740k km) on it. I change oil every 5000 - 5600 mi (8000 - 9000 km), he changes every 6200 - 6800 mi (10 000 - 11 000 km).
I also have a neighbour that had Mercedes 190D 75 HP (2.0 L diesel) from 1991 and made it to 605k mi (975k km) until rust ate the car away around a year ago. Oil changed max every 6200 mi (10 000 km).

What a coincidence. I have 270,000 miles on my 2008 Chevy 3/4 ton Suburban with a 6.0 gasser. Just did a pan drop on my 6L90 and it was clean.

My 2006 Chevy Aveo has 265K miles now. Still runs and drives as it should. Cost me $9800 new. Starting to rot in the unibody. Only a matter of time now. Miles has never been a limiting factor for me. They all end up rotting down from the salt and I drive them to the bone yard.
I am loo king forward to hearing from Revving to Redline. I think he puts on the miles?
The Xterra in my sig has now 409,000 and my daughter drives it every day. I had the valve covers off not long ago - link below.
There was a guy that had a similar year Frontier that ran 1M miles, it was a 4 cylinder though. I think Nissan eventually gave him a new one?

I'm at 308,000 miles on a 2001 Rav4. No rust problems or state inspections where I live so I'm sure there are lots of high mileage cars driving around here.

I used to own a 1990 Ford Ranger 2.9 V6. I sold it at 350,000 miles, and it ran pretty well. The guy I sold it to was local and I saw him driving it around for another 10 years.

My current Civic is the highest mileage vehicle I’ve ever owned so every time I drive it I beat my record 
It’s currently at precisely 267,800 km. I know this because my girlfriend and I went out for a nice drive today through the winery areas of Niagara and when we got back to her house I commented on seeing the odometer at that exact number. I’m such a nerd

Just shy of 240k miles on my 05 Element. My 93 C1500 and 94 F350 are babies at 163k and 120k respectively. Used to have an 86 Volvo 240 that had close to 300k when we sold it.
96 Mercedes E300 OM606 engine gave it to nephew at 292k miles and he drove it to 345k miles and then sold it.
