Update on Million Mile Chevy


I posted previously about Frank Oresnik of rural Wisconsin and his trusty 1991 Chevy Silverado,which was about to pass one million odometer miles.Well,they did it last Friday and film crews from PBS and CBS were on hand to cover it!Frank credited the longevity of his truck to regular oil changes-so many in fact he has had to have the oilpan drain plug screw retreaded several times!Now that the truck has made automotive history of sorts,there is talk of General Motors or Shell Oil purchasing the truck for promotional purposes!Hell,I think for all the free publicity Frank has given GM,they should hand him the keys to a shiny new '08 Silverado,fully loaded with oil changes thrown in,of course!
