how come theres barely any 4 cyl car with very high mileage? all 300k+ cars ive seen are usually big v8 trucksdo people just not drive 4cyl cars that much or are 4 cyl engines not built to last as long?
Uhhh are you retarded?
>>28098850Mk4 TDI engines were all 4 cylinders, and if the rust didn't claim the cars first, those things would go 500,000 plus. The mk6-dieselgate ones can go that far too it looks like, but you have to do some emissions surgery to make it happen.As far as gas engines, its mostly the Jap brands that manage to hit the 300k mark. You have to remember that the its not typically the engine blowing up that takes a car off the road. Plenty of other things can lead to someone totaling or scrapping a car before its really at the end of its life.>Transmissions go out much more frequently and cost much more to replace than the engine>Diesels are more likely to get sold out of state or scrapped if emissions repairs are high and smogging is unavoidable>Rust eating the frame away>Huge pile of deferred maintenance on the suspension components make it not worth fixingAlso consider that most cars will not just be owned by a single person during their lifespan. The average time between car purchases for an American is 7 years. Thats usually about 80-90k miles of driving on the car. A used car typically won't break 200k miles until its third owner, at which point the resale value of basically nothing, even if its in good shape. By the time it gets sold/traded at 21 years old / 270k miles, it is considered a beater and probably has a laundry list of small things wrong on top of 1 really big issue thats starting to rear its head.Those VW diesels from 2003 are still on the road, but only because there are 5 dead ones for every functional one that can serve as parts cars.
>>28098850Try a 4 banger that isn't assembled by spics or europoors
>>28098850My dad's shitty '05 Grand Caravan with the Pentastar V6 made it to 300k miles somehow. It's really down to maintenance and understanding the limitations of the engine. Most fuckhuge V8 trucks don't actually work all that hard most of the time, so they really don't have much load on them at all.
>>28099045Find me a prettier girl than Audrey Hepburn.You can't.
Generally speaking cars get scrapped because repairs and maintenence becomes uneconomic, not because it's not possible. The value plummets and the cars fall in to the hands of poorfags get treated like disposable items.
>>28099045I have a car with 14 previous owners.Everything was neglected and I had to rebuild the lower bodypanels all around.At some point people just stop caring about maintenance and run it into the ground untill it literally stops driving.Ironically the engine just needed a new vacuum hose and an oil change.Still going strong.
>easily does 300k+ in your pathHeh.... nothing personnel scrubs
>>28098850I’ve seen 4 cylinder accords with over million original miles
>>28098862Fpbp
>>28098850There's more to it than just the engine. Cars are unibodied so once rust gets them they're done, especially when it starts attacking structural areas.
the top 10 highest mileage car records around the world are mostly 4 bangers.
>>28099101that was easy
>>28100355>service twice a monthEven if it's just an oil change he can push it for 2-3 months.
>>28100355https://www.everlance.com/blog/10-highest-mileage-vehiclesnot even close. and even most of the 4 cylinders on this list had their engines rebuilt multiple times.
>>28098850VAG 1.9tdi's (especially old audis since they barley rust) BMW i6'sold Mercs with either i4, i5 or i6 engines all known for rust just because their engines outlast their bodies
>>28100313>Cars are unibodied so once rust gets them they're done, especially when it starts attacking structural areasIn Arizona we know not of this rust thing you speak of.
>>28100512whoop de do for you. we don't all live in Arizona, some of us live in places like Ohio where road salt exists.
>>28100502There has been about 150,000 hours that have passed since 2007 which means that this truck has averaged almost 12 mph for its entire life.
we do use road salt in a good deal of EU cunts as well so rust is thing here
>>28098850>how come theres barely any 4 cyl car with very high mileageliterally any volvo or saab from the 80s and earlier
Salt is fucking evil, dude. No amount of undercoating will save you. Salt laughs at zinc or cadmium coatings. Nothing can survive more than like 4 winters in Wisconsin before crumbling to a pile of iron oxide dust. Them who lives in Texas or Arizona will never know the horror. Them who lives in Texas or Arizona may regularly encounter 80s Japanese metal when it's just a fairy tale in the Midwest.
>>28100566>No amount of undercoating will save youUndercoating is garbage regardless of where you live. The moment one small area delaminates it begins to collect water in a rubberized pocket where it can't evaporate, constantly eroding the metal away for years and years. Remove that shit.
>>28100566yeah i guess we don't know how fortunate we are in Georgia where 30 year old cars and trucks in near-spotless condition can be found, only problem is that sometimes interior parts can get melted or otherwise damaged from the intense Southern sun.
Michigan is where most of the road salt in the US is manufactured so it's ground zero for the plague. Salt damage actually is a major environmental crisis there as it seeps into the water and soil.
>>28099045VW also has a strong modding culture and keep their cars well maintained.
wish they'd just fucking ban road salt already. i'm cynical enough to believe car manufacturers are in bed with salt manufacturers so your vehicles are destroyed quickly and you have to buy new ones so they get more sales.
You can only get 25k miles per cylinder. It’s a law of nature
>>28098850>prius>camry>corolla>accord>civic>fitall can hit 300k miles
>>28100502The top 3 cars from that list all have their original powertrains. Also trucks don't count (because most were 6/8 cylinder in the olden days), especially 3/4 tons (which are exclusively 6/8 cylinder still).
>>28098850More cylinders is less shock and vibration.
Lots of 300k milers in euro diesels. Also got one petrol saab that has done it.
>>28100566The brown color is surface oxide that naturally forms from steel reacting to air. It's harmless and in fact protects the metal from further oxidation. Salt water however will just eat through it like battery acid which is what undercoatings are designed to prevent.
Heh, a TDI barely broken in
>>28101587>The top 3 cars from that list all have their original powertrainsthey don't. the volvo guy admitted to rebuilding the engine multiple times, so did the Merc.>Also trucks don't counttry reading the OP again, retard.
>>28103138Are you pretending to be retarded you dumb mongoloid?>the volvo guy admitted to rebuilding the engine multiple timesIt's called maintenance, still the original block and transmission.

Mercedes validated the originality of the car themselves you shitskin.>try reading the OP again, retard.Maybe you should read my post again and think twice before you post garbage you gorilla faggotThe reason why OP (another faggot) is seeing mostly v8 truck with 300k+ miles is because:-lives in a location with mostly trucks (some redneck shithole)-trucks are used as work vehicles (high mileage shit)-they used to (still do) come with big engines (like v8s)Now fuck off.

>>28098850The reason trucks last the longest is durable body on frame designs that don’t get easily wrecked. On top of often having unstressed big engines. A 1993 Honda Civic may have a power train that is just as reliable as any truck out there, but good luck driving it a million miles without it getting totaled in a car accident.
>>28098850My old D-21 Hardbody made it to 450k miles before Michigan rust claimed it. Engine still ran too, sold it to a guy restoring a 240sx. That little KA24E too fucking reliable and it was a SLOW piece of shit. I literally tried to kill it by not changing the timing chain and the most it ever did was rattle a little on startup. Pretty sure the rings were sized too because it would burn oil like a motherfucker the last couple years I drove it. But it ran no matter how much I abused it.
>>28105539If you don't believe me, go talk to Fred.At this point the only ones with less than 80k are the ones that got crushed by a semi truck before the diesel gate buyback program dripfed them back onto the used market. The common rail TDIs (09-15) are more powerful than the ALH and BEW engines from 1998-2006 but the newer emissions hardware kills them. It remains to be seen how long these will go once they get deleted. The ALH cars are absolute tanks, as long as its manual, it will go until it's put into the crusher. It says something that the BEW engines were considered a step back in reliability because they need cams every 250-300k miles... Hell, that era of gas powered VAG engines was also probably their best too. 5 cylinder though, so they don't really count for this thread. VAG engineers make some wildly dumb choices sometimes (plastic vacuum connections, not being able to make a sunroof that seals), but I don't get where this belief comes from that all of their cars are heaping piles of trash that explode. People whine about these cars throwing codes and having limp mode, but forget that dropping into limp mode is probably what is saving the car.

>>28112644>2024 article mirroring the same thing.My article talks about the average lifespan of vehicles in europe. The average varies from 8.0 to 35.1 years, with a mean of 18.1 years in western and 28.4 years in eastern european countries. That means that most people own their cars in EE for around 28 years before they replace it. This isn't cuba, where people are so poor/have nothing, that they are forced to drive their second hand cars forever (that's why your cuba example was dumb). Your article also only includes 29 countries, where as mine includes 31, but we are both missing some other balkan countries (like bulgaria, albania, serbia, etc). With them, the average age would be higher (albania is filled with old mercs, the average age of cars in bulgaria is around 20 years, etc). Now, compared to america, where most states don't have to worry about requirements such as annual inspections and emissions compliance measures, the average age is mostly around 12.6 years (your article claims 14 to 17 years old for europe).>unless they show pictures of the cars, there's no proof they're doing anything but spreading the propaganda of their auto industry from their bus seats.What pictures?>propaganda of their auto industryCope KEK.>nobody cares about the euroshits that agree with you, or your 28 year old shitboxes with no evidence of their existence.Europeans have older cars on their roads then americans do.

I said "And the truck has the same hp/tq right?". The car (with a 4 cylinder) is not experiencing less load, because it has less power vs a truck or a car with a truck engine (which has more power), plus it has less cylinder to share that load with.

Most won't even go over €20k.

>>28114701>"they're pulling far less weight being in a shitbox than a truck that weighs twice as much they're experiencing less loadYes.>"And the truck has the same hp/tq right?"Doesn't matter. they're doing more work. >The car (with a 4 cylinder) is not experiencing less load, because it has less power retarded, and would only make sense if it was actually towing shit. which it isn't.>plus it has less cylinder to share that load withAlso retarded, because less moving parts means fewer potential failure points.>A truck also might experience more load if it's towing/hauling, all of the ones i posted, were cross country tow trucks.>but it's designed for that anywaysand the volvo engine is designed to carry its own weight for the car it was put in. any notion of it being more stressed is moronic. >a ferrari is designed for performance any engine built to make power would be designed for some kind of performance. so congrats on admitting the trucks are more stressed, because they have to perform to a certain expectation to tow, the volvo doesn't. allowing for a more simplistic and stress-free engine.>and to milk it's customer of moneythat's european cars in general.>Why did you ignore the fact that he owned 2 corvairs and got rid of them,Corvair engines are commonly used in airplanes. why do you ignore europeans forsaking their own shitboxes for an american car having made it the best selling car in europe? is it because modern euroshit cars constantly break down?>it's called "preventive maintenance"copium>The car didn't need itmore copium>posts and evNot my fault europeans are technologically behind.
>The title might read "lifespan," but the content actually discusses the "average age."Your data in your article is labeled "car age".>I already refuted your "cuba" exampleRe refutes your slavshit example. since you cannot prove they don't swap out their shit.>albania (and other countries like them) can import cars and partsjust like the rest of europe, where it almost never happens due to taxes. its far less convenient to import a car that you don't even know will work than it is to just salvage an engine from a wrecked shitbox already in your country, which is likely what slavs are doing.>compares the US to albaniaYou're the one comparing slavshit countries to save face, whilst trying to ignore cuba for the same reasons you shouldn't be comparing eastern euro countries to america.
>>28114705>I know, the volvo guy is american.as are the million mile cummins club. makes me wonder why such a thing isn't in europe. i mean, all their cars are 20+ years old, right? why don't they have million mile vehicles left and right?>your articles (including the one from 2024) are talking about average age.your article labels its data as "car age", and it cites the same agency i linked anyway.>That article is oldso is yours, its from 2021. the only one who posted something from this year is me.>No, it isn't.according to the most recent data i linked by an agency, it is.>and it's not all european countries.its the western ones, which are the only ones you should be comparing to america.>Just like how some european countries You mean the poorest slavshit ones that can't afford anything? no, you aren't making a counter point with that.>Most states also don't have to deal with requirements such as annual inspections and emissions compliance measures.slavshit countries practically have no regulations on cars whatsoever, and you can get away with shit you couldn't in america, which would allow you to drive something that wouldn't even be road legal in the US.>people that have more disposable income, buy new shit more often. That's why i called you out on your cuba example.Yet you don't see how comparing the US to slavshit countries is stupid? >No they don'tAccording to the most recent data, they do. cope.No it isn't, the data is above.Yea it is, your data is outdated. cope more.>You really think nobody can buy cars in eastern europe? They can, used hack together ones with salvaged parts no different than cuba.>Dacia cars, for example, usually start at the low end of €10k . No slavshit is spending 10k on a fucking car when they can build salvage shit around them. if cubans can do it for cheap, you don't think its appealing to slavs? they have no disposable income, so they're going to penny pinch to hell.
>28114711>This is a very specific piece of dataNot my fault you made a claim as retarded as suggesting most cars in slavshit countries have their original powertrains, as if they don't swap shit when every poor country does.>however most euros agree with memost articles agree with me on how old european cars are and their life span.most articles agree that your merc had its engine rebuiltyou can't refute the 3 million mile ram with an article saying it had its engine replaced, so it didn't.get BTFO.
