Funny.

I think it's probably a long list of reasons, including better materials, closer tolerances, better oil, better designs, EFI vs carb, overdrive trans to reduce rpms on cruise, and now I need to list not dumping the clutch to do smokey burnouts.

   Why is it not a big deal for Hondas to run forever, but hitting 100,000
