And there's no way any car, let alone one made in 2001, would have that kind of mileage.

Hit the request more info button and see if you can email them and ask if the car actually has 900000 miles.

its possible but the person would have to drive about 325 miles every day.  And there's no reason a car couldn't last for that many miles, its just very unlikely.

100 million? that is false. we have already established that 500K over 5 years is like the most insane possible. meaning 100k a year, which is ten times average. even if you could have driven ten times that much, a million a year (impossible), you would have had to do that for 100 years straight. noone drives for 100 years, you would either die or lose ability by then, and the car would have had to have been made before 1909. i call bullshit.

its probably and older ford diesel.  and im assuming he meant 1,000,000 miles.

tractor trailers are known to go for well over a million miles. though the do have heaver pistons,crank,cam,rings,seals,etc...
