126,240 Mile Up-date '10 SS L99

Well, the wife's SS had it's 5K mile maintenance today. Oil, filter, the usual.

I don't get on very much lately, as I have done about all I plan on doing to the car, AND it's not giving me any problems (that requires SEARCH FOR HELP!). Just an up-date.

The cheepo headers (Speed Engineering) are still looking good. No leaks, cracks or rattles.

Drained 3 oz. oil out of the Mike Norris catch can. Gives me a warm-n-fuzzy feeling, that oil didn't go into my intake.

After 25K miles, the Firestone Wingfoot 245/50/19 A/S tires still have knee-deep tread. Should go 60K + miles. They ride and handle great.

Knocks down 18 MPG combined driving.

Couldn't ask for a better car!

About 20K miles, over a year..... Still doing great.

My cheepo headers and cheepo catch can (along with a used Varram) are doing their job nicely.

Car is drop-dead dependable.
