When i got my syncro about 5-6 years ago it had 189k or so miles on it.

Now it has 174k.

The magic of the odometer breaking and the fixit shop resetting the odometer after I got the numbers all mixed up trying to fix it.

Probably the chassis has about 230 k on it, if the odometer was correct when I got it.

Your Mileage Most Certainly Does Vary.
