I have a lot of cars so I don
I have a lot of cars so I don't put miles on too fast but just hit 159,000 miles on my 2002 Forester. Since I have owned the car I have replaced a steering rack, wheel bearings, ball joints, cv axles, brake pads, belts, oxygen sensors, valve cover seals and several girlfriends but no head gasket issues. Now at 160,000 miles I will do the second timing belt. This vehicle is built like a tank and inside is in incredible shape. No cracks in the dash etc. like a lot of cars and I live in Las Vegas where it's hot. I love driving the car and especially enjoy the standard transmission. I thought about buying a new car many times but why when this one is so good!
