  My old boss has a '98 chevy truck (Can't remember the exact model) and he
has 600,000 klms on it.  He's on his third engine, and FOURTH tranny!  He only
keeps the damn thing because he beats the HELL out of the truck and he just
likes the way it drives.

  He's convinced to go with a toyoto next time.
