There are memories behind every mile in a Honda, and we’d love to hear yours. If your odometer has reached a notable milestone, this is the place to share your journey with others who have done the same. Congratulations—not every Honda travels 100,000 miles and beyond. The stories here don’t represent the average expectancy of every Honda. Everyone’s experience is different based on vehicle, driving manner and conditions.

I purchased Bluebell my 2004 Honda Civic back in 2004 while I was still in college never intending to drive her as much as I do. Well I managed to find a job over 45 miles from home and then decided to move further away. So my daily commute is typically 190-200 miles. At this rate I drive around 50,000 miles a year and they have quickly added up. So now Bluebell turns 250,000 in Nov 2012 roughly 7 1/2 years after I bought her.

I have no plans on selling her anytime soon or possibly ever! The only major repairs I've made are a new clutch (she is a MT) at 229,000 miles and a new alternator. The rest of the repairs have just been standard maintenance. I hope she makes it another 250k...350k...or hopefully 750k+ miles!

I loved Hondas before I bought Bluebell (this is my third Honda), but now after how well she has performed I am a Honda owner for LIFE!!
