    He says the key to keeping a car running for a long time is to do regular maintenance such as oil changes and lubrication, and to undercoat the vehicle.

    Nice!

    Over the years, nearly everything on the vehicle has been replaced or repaired, and Campbell says the only original part is likely the body, and even that has had work done on it.

    Oh. 🤨

      It’s salty here in Nova Scotia. Even in summer. Everything rusts and degrades. This isn’t surprising. There are million mile Toyota’s out there that are all original but I doubt you’d find one in NS.

      My partner’s car used to be my dad’s… it’s got almost 500k KM on it and has had nothing replaced. The only thing wrong is the highest blower setting for AC or heat doesn’t work and it’s slowly leaking coolant now.
