This thread is to get your post count go up and to make all the people that have broken maximas feel worse.

No offense, I usually enjoy your posts.

I see mysta rave has positve input as well. How's your sticky grill? Mine's got chicken on it right now! Charcoal is dying though.....

While the thread is lame, it's not pointless. When all you read is about broken down cars, you start to wonder if you made the right choice in cars. Rock solid reliability is why i dropped my IROC-Z for a Maxima. Think about all the non-members who a checking to see if the want a Maxima or a honda....

People post their cardomains sites up in the members section. Thats why that subforum was created. It's not very difficult.

I deal with you teenage trolls everyday. Don't worry; you won't be here for long.

Sorry for crapping your thread Tom.

My car is heading towards 92k on my 97. I make sure maintenance is up to par, and hope it goes over 200k like few members on the board.

It's fine. At least you know now.


There were others that crapped this thread but your tone stood out. I'm not trying to rip you to pieces; Tom (the thread maker) is well respected and the topic is different from the same "my car is slow; my car broke down; my car's transmission got up and walked away, etc etc"

Just ease up a little. You will find a lot of other threads more worthless than this...

Very interesting reading in this thread. A few negative guys, (thats expected) but some good input from a few well running high mileage car owners.
