Odd. Hard to imagine a scenario where that would happen...
- if the speedo were swapped, then the hours would be swapped, too.
- if the vehicle were towed (engine not running) the mileage wouldn't continue to increase, would it?
- maybe the guy installed tiny little donut tires off a clown car?
Who knows!

Several months ago I pulled both batteries out of my 2006 D/A and the hour meter reset to zero from 4,000 hours. I posted the problem here and several members indicated that they had the same thing happen. Others also posted that they had removed their batteries and the hour meter did not reset to zero. I suspect that the 751k mile truck had both batteries removed at some point and the hour meter reset. It is strange that some trucks reset and some do not. ?????

Interesting... You can see in the photos that the truck is equipped with ACDelco batts, but they are the combo top/side post variety, which are likely replacements. All new trucks I've seen were factory-equipped with ACDelco side post (only) batts.Originally Posted by CoyleJR

Interesting to me is a truck with over 751,000 miles on it and the print out says nothing about wheel bearings, or u-joints being replaced, I suppose a lot of work was done in other places not accounted for at the Chevy dealer. Surely brakes and shocks, belts and hoses, etc. What about upper and lower ball joints? So many parts to wear out. Wish we had a better accounting of parts replaced in that 3/4 of a million mile run. Why? Because I would like to know what it will take to make mine run that long. Did it have additional fuel filtration?
Original fuel pump? How many sets of injectors were replaced?
