The Duramax was introduced to the public around the third quarter of 2000 if memory serves me correctly.

I have read several threads were there was mention of 400,000 mile trucks and even a recent post that referred to "near half million miles".

Assuming the trucks were put into service in Sept/2000? a truck would have to run 13,300 miles per month to rack up 400k. Talk about butt cramp.

That's 440 miles every day of the year or about 550 per day if you take Sunday off.

Forget the truck, I wanna see these guy's computer hardware and software 'cause they must be posting from the trucks at 80 mph.

Brokers runs a business that transports vehicles. 2 and 3 driver teams drive the trucks nearly 24/7 and his first Dmax racked up over 458K mi. in about 1-1/2 yrs.

He doesn't drive, he runs he business and posts occasionally.
