    Wis. man on verge of putting millionth mile on his truck
    By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    MEDFORD, Wis. - A Wisconsin man says his trusty pickup is on the verge of making history.

    Frank Oresnik says his 1991 Chevy Silverado is about to pass the one million mile mark. He says the truck is 1,200 miles (1,930 kilometres) from a million. He plans to retire the vehicle once it hits the milestone.

    Oresnik credits proper maintenance and luck for allowing the truck to roll up so many miles.

    He bought the Silverado in June 1996 after the original owner put 41,000 miles ( 66,000 kilometres) on it.

    General Motors and Shell are said to be interested in examining the engine.

    My old 94 Z28 had 375k on it when my brother ran into some broad with it and totaled it.

    Didn't Al Bundy have a car that rolled over a million? I think it was done before.
