    Fellow 2006 Corolla owner here. 105k miles, still on the full original exhaust - 13 years old.

    • @AbandonedMines11
      @AbandonedMines11  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome! I just turned over 376,000 miles on my ‘06 Corolla. I’ll film a video when it reaches 400,000 miles. At the rate I’m driving now, that will probably occur sometime late next year. I still have the original exhaust on my Corolla, too. Also still have the original engine. Transmission went out at 302,000 miles. I replaced all the shocks and struts within the last year or so because the originals were still on the car. I replaced the radiator a couple years ago because it got a hairline crack in it. It wasn’t malfunctioning at all, but I did it as a precaution. The AC compressor finally went out a year ago, so I replaced the original back then. Had to replace the alternator once. Also the starter. Other than that, the car is been really great! Still rides really well and gets great gas mileage! It always passes the biannual smog inspections as well. Burns very clean. I wonder if your odometer will freeze at 299,999 miles like mine did? It seems that certain Corollas from around 2006 or so have this glitch in the odometer. I keep track of the mileage now using one of the two trip odometers. They are great cars! Thanks for your comment!

      Cool! Thanks for sharing your story! My odometer is almost at 385,000 miles. I just had to replace the radiator fan a few weeks ago. It still had the original fan in there, and it finally wore out after going for 384,000 miles over the last 14 years. Best cars ever! I’m sure you’ll agree!

      Hey Ryan, I also have a 2006 Corolla. If you want some hubcaps that will stay on, I would recommend Toyota part # 61121. These are the 5 spoke hubcaps that were used on the '05-'08 Corolla S, but they will fit just fine on yours, as long as you have the original 15 inch wheels. I bought a set of four back from eBay in 2013 and since then, I've gone 5 years and about 100,000 miles without losing a single one! For whatever reason, the design of #61121 seems to stay on our wheels better then the other Toyota hubcaps... weird.

      I try to look after it as best I can. As other explorers in the past who’ve accompanied me on various adventures will attest, I have literally beat the hell out of my car driving on rough back roads out in the desert and up in the mountains. There have been a few times where I’ve had my car in some remote area and actually had to stop and build a road using the shovel that I keep in the trunk! But the car has held up remarkably well despite all of that.

    Hey Frank! Hope all has been well with you. I was just telling my girlfriend last night about your car and how "It probably has 360 or 370k on it by now, if he still has it." These Corollas are absolutely some of the best cars Toyota has ever made. Mine only has 211k on it... I can thank my 9 mile round-trip work commute for that, plus the fact that I drive my truck or ride my motorcycle some days. I did have to put a different transmission in at 208,000. The stickshifts aren't known for being as durable as the automatics, which is surprising.
    Ruptured gas tank... tell me that didn't that happen out in the desert lol. Also, my Corolla has that same broken door under the climate controls! One of the few things that commonly break on these models.
    Anyway, send me an email if you have any interesting trips planned this year if you want someone to tag along on. I finally have built up some time off at work, and have a full size, 4WD SUV.

      400,000 miles, eh? I totally believe it. I think my car is going to do the same thing. However, it’s going to take a little bit longer to reach 400,000 miles than before because, as you probably noticed, I have really cut back on making road trips to explore abandoned mines. After I announced my semi-retirement almost 2 years ago in May 2017, I have done just that - semi retired! And I’m loving it! After 10 long years of exploring over 50 mines a year, it was time to call it quits and change focus. I’m still getting out there once in a long while but definitely not with the frequency or the interest I once had. I only made three trips during 2018. Believe it or not, I still have a lot of footage from other trips earlier than that which I haven’t even edited and uploaded to TH-cam yet. Those will be coming over the next year or so - I hope. My interest is at such an all-time low that I’m not even interested in editing that old footage into coherent videos that I can upload to my channel. LOL Oh well.... Good times, though!

      Exploring Abandoned Mines and Unusual Places thank you Frank for sharing. Your videos of mine exploring really got me interested in the other channels. The other Frank, BC Frank and Justin. Etc. Thanks for the memories. I grew up on Mojave and surrounding areas. Bell mountain, including the Lucerne valley where my family is from before settling in Santa Ana. And yes as a white boy I was hassled alot. Hell I remember when there still was furniture in the houses in Rhyolite. Before the whole town burned. The Antelope valley, Apple Valley, Borrego springs. On and on my dad took care of the watering holes in the desert along the aquaduct. 29 palms area/Anza Borrego desert had the most mines in the 70's you couldn't swing a dead cat with out falling into a prospect pit. The Forest disservice closed probably 75 percent of the mines by the 90's including the razing and burning historical American History and property. Disgrace and disgust with the way this place is going. That's why I left Kali. I'm in S. Ore. Now for a decade, beautiful place but no work for an old guy like me.
      I'll be looking for your new interest soon

      Thanks, Jeffrey, for your comment! I always like hearing stories from older people who explored back in the 1970s, 1980s, and the 1990s. Those were the glory days for abandoned mine exploration, that’s for sure. Back then there wasn’t the constant nanny-state government looking over your shoulder to see where you were going and what you were doing. The mines were still around and accessible for those daring enough to go in them. You are absolutely correct when you say that the government has destroyed many historic sites and artifacts. I know on my own TH-cam channel there are a few mines that I documented years ago that are no longer extant. Hard to believe, but it’s true! You mentioned Bell Mountain. Did you ever get inside the Sidewinder Mine there? I guess they backfilled and destroyed that one many years ago. Someone else left me a comment a couple of years ago saying they were in that mine before it was destroyed, and they said it was quite extensive with graffiti dating back to the late 1800s! Don’t worry - I’ll get back out there in the hills as soon as the spring thaw sets in and will begin documenting more abandoned mines and unusual places. It just won’t be with the intensity that it was two years ago. On another note, you have been a long-time supporter here, that’s for sure, and I really appreciate that. Thanks for your comments today. I really enjoyed reading them.

      Exploring Abandoned Mines
      I have one of the spookiest stories from bell mountain you may not beleive.........
      My Mom and Dad graduated Santa Ana high '66... there they became friends with Lee Medley (righteous brothers) fast forward 11yrs. to 1977 we ride bikes alot all over the Mojave dry lake and surrounding desert areas all the way to mexico. One time riding with Lee and family, we all had bikes, my cousin and I rode to a huge haulage adit at Bell mountian that was approximately 10 to 15 feet high and as much wide we rode our bikes deep inside because we were dumb (at least we wore helmets) now here comes the hard to believe part.....
      We went deep into the haulage to look back at stars in the middle of the day. I was about 10, I think. So I didnt drink or smoke at the time, and I have a Polaroid of that day with my cousin on our bikes (Bultaco and Yamaha) saved to digital before it was destroyed. I also caught the tail end of the chili bar under the rock at Mojave dry lake airstrip after *they* destroyed the place under the rock. about a 100 people had homes around that area and one guy would shoot a shotgun at us when we rode by but we were to fast. Your channel brought those and many more fantastic memories back fresh.

      Congratulations! Sounds like you are taking very good care of your vehicle as well. I forgot to mention in my video that I also replaced my motor mounts this past fall, too. Just more basic maintenance when things wear out. Got almost 370,000 miles out of my original motor mounts, so I think that’s pretty impressive.

    I'm currently in the market in a first car, I might just get one of these cars!! they seem reliable has it cost a lot to maintain?

    • @AbandonedMines11
      @AbandonedMines11  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, there hasn't been a lot of cost involved to maintain it. At least not in my book. The new transmission cost me around $2000 a few years ago when the original failed at 302,000 miles. New shocks and struts were around $500 bucks last year, and my car still had the original shocks and struts on it and they held up fine. I also replaced all three motor mounts late last year. The originals finally wore out last summer. That was around $500 or so. I've had my car for almost fourteen years, and it still drives and rides great! People cannot believe how old it is or how many miles it has! Best investment ever!

    • @AbandonedMines11
      @AbandonedMines11  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’ve been keeping track of the mileage using one of the two trip odometers. The trip odometer records in 10,000 mile increments. I just posted a new video a month or so ago with an update on my 2006 Corolla. It now has 430,000 miles on it! It just keeps on going and going!

    • @AbandonedMines11
      @AbandonedMines11  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      v Check out my other video of when my Corolla reached 300,000 miles a few years ago. Certain Toyotas from this time period have a glitch where the odometer freezes at 299,999 miles. My odometer did just that. It’s in the video that I posted a few years ago here on my channel. So I have been using one of the two trip odometers to keep track of my mileage ever since. That is what you saw in this video. The trip odometers only record in 10,000 miles segments before resetting to zero, so that’s what you saw happen in this video.
