You might think that a corporation that makes its bread and butter from selling new cars would not encourage its customers to drive their vehicles well beyond that vehicle's life expectancy. You would never see a real estate company celebrating a customer that has remained in the same home for 25 years, would you?
Well, Honda does. American Honda has a website dedicated to 'high-milers'. Because the site is American, the customer stories and achievement levels are in miles. We've included conversion tools below (roughly 1 mile=1.61km).
Click here to go to the website.
There are currently no 'diamond' level high-milers on the site. Diamond level is a Honda that has exceeded 1,000,000 miles (1,600,000 km)! However, there are a few in the Ruby level which is beyond 700,000 miles.
This is a great website, a great idea and a tribute to the reliability of Honda vehicles.
At Orangeville Honda, we fairly consistently see vehicles come into the Service Department with 200,000 to 500,000 km on the odometer.
Is your Honda a 'high-miler'? Tell your story in the comments below - we'd love to hear it...

Great article. If the car lasted that long, the owner must be so loyal to his car and kept it well maintained for such a long time.
