For the most part, I drove freeway miles to various jobs. 1984 Chevy shortbed truck. I went through 3 transmissions and one rear axle in 9 years.

I just parked it cause it got a miss a set of plugs did not tune out,blowing a qrt of oil every 500 miles. I will try a cap and rotor and run it another 100,000 miles.
