A 1997 E250 with 5.4 V8 gas. Neither the engine or the transmission has ever been overhauled. He got 500,000 miles out of the serpentine belt.

"His maintenance secrets for getting a million miles from his van would make most automotive engineers and mechanics cringe: He changes his oil every 10,000 miles, but one time drove it 55,000 miles before an oil change. He adds a quart of oil with every other fill-up, however."
"Though automobiles with 1 million miles are rare, they're not unheard of. A 1966 Volvo owned by a New York man has more than 2 million miles on it, but that car doesn't regularly haul 3,000 pounds of auto parts halfway across the United States, as Mr. Schell's van does."
