At a job site a well running 1986 Accord got destroyed by a construction worker who improperly attached a clevis hitch trailer to a ball hitch using chains. The compressor broke loose and demolished it. It had 525,000 miles. The owner was quite happy as insurance company did not take into consideration mileage just age.
My dad had a 1987 F250 302 4 speed that had > 250000 miles on it when he got rid of it because of rust. The poor truck was always severely overloaded with tools. Had the original clutch, though!
