pretty sure all brands of cars have done that. Pretty old marketing campaign idea.

Not that's it's even close but I have a 72 Chevy truck with 400K on the original motor. The motor has never been out of the truck. It has had a couple of timing chains, a couple of transmission rebuilds and been converted to HEI.

Seems like that sort of overshadows one dude's truck.
