Just want to say I have had my 2001 D2 since 2003. I'm about 1k miles shy of 200k. Still original engine. It's been through 2 teenagers, a deer head on at 70mph, a mailbox, and several head gasket jobs.

I still love this thing.

 

That’s great to hear. 20 years with the same vehicle is a great legacy.

 

Congrats on keeping it alive, that’s some dedication.

Anyone have any idea how many head gasket jobs these blocks can handle? Just finishing up #3 on mine.

 

Yes, I agree, I bougfht my 1999, in 2006, and its still my daily driver,I was going to scrap it 2 years ago when it failed it's anuual test on the back chassis, but when I open it's Log book I saw it was registered on my birthday, so I fixed it still no regrets
