Yeah, I was trying to time it right so I would have the needle up around 70 or 80 (just so it wouldn't block my shot) since I was on the interstate, but I had to take the pic on a off ramp, otherwise I would have missed the 200k.

Yup, still running good. Still has the original auto tranny in it as well. It goes through about 2 quarts of oil between changes, has some pinging, and needs some front brake work, but otherwise, it's great!

It only looks good when it's in a small picture or wet.

That's what I was thinking too.....

My 22RE is about to hit 178K...At the rate I'm going, it'll take me several years to hit 200K.

Sometimes I feel like 40 is all it can do. It's a real pain to try to keep it at 70 sometimes, unless I'm going downhill or have a strong tail wind. I did find a bit of a sweet spot around 75-80 though. It does 75 and maybe even 80 better than it does 70.
