Just as the title says. Figured it would be cool to see how long people have held on to their rigs.

By owning, it doesnt have to be paid off, just how long its been in your possession.

Im at 4 yrs 2 mon.

One of the coil packs failed causing intermittent issues, so they couldn't pin point which one it was so they were all replaced
Front drive shaft blew apart
Front Diff bushings

Owned it since Jan. 1, 2010. It was in the body shop when I bought it, getting a whole new front clip after the previous owner slammed a deer at 55 mph.

Since December 18th, 2008. That's: 1,093 days. 2 years, 11 months, 29 days. (There's an Android app for that, and I have it. :p )

It was a lease return in perfect condition. It had 21k miles on it, and now it's 60k. It gets lots of use. :)

I bought mine July 10,2008. It had 8 miles on the clock. I now have 58,500. It's the finest vehicle I have ever owned. I live in Missouri and have traveled through the Dakotas,Badlands, Moab (twice), Nevada, Grand Canyon West, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Every National Park in Utah and Colorado, Grand Canyon South rim,Most of Northern Arizona, and most of New Mexixo plus a zillion places in between. Oh and 4 trips to Destin, Florida. I bought mine on the day when oil prices were the highest they have ever been. $147.00 a barrel. No one wanted the Commanders and I picked up a brand new 2007 Rocky Mountain edition at a great price. Best purchase I have ever made. If I ever sell her I have no Idea what I would replace her with. It would have to be a Jeep but I'm not a big fan of the Grand (just can't warm up to the body style) and don't care for those tiny little Jeeps albeit they are probably the definitive offroad vehicle. I don't live offroad so having one that climbs over big rocks is not a priority for me. I have the 4.7 and after having climbed some of the biggest mountains in the USA on several occassions I never once wished I had more power.

Almost 4 years now.

It was driven by a Chrysler executive and had about 9,000 miles on it when I bought it. I just passed 96,000 miles yesterday. No serious problems.

The 2006 XK we got with 18, 000km on the clock in Nov 08. So 2yrs, 1 mo. We traded it in with 65, 000km. The 2010 XK we got last Dec had 22, 000km, it now has 60, 000km. So 1yr, 1mo.
So we have had an XK in the driveway for 3yrs, 2mos and put on 85, 000km total with multiple trips across Canada and a side trip to Florida.
