Hi All

90 GL Carat-a-version  350,000 mile and on my 3rd engine  the first two had
shorter lived because I towed my ski boat with her.
(the first two engines only lasted about 92K [blew a head gasket and twisted
off a head bolt taking heads off] and 127K on the second)

6 starters
6 alternators
Countless brake pads
(I hate coolant, I get the hee-bee-gees thinking about leaks)

My daughter now drives it.

Jere
