Daily Driver 50 miles round trip per day
Believe the hype when they call this a Bulletproof engine! I own a 1990 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham FE3 full luxury package. As long as you know your way around a wrench and a jack you can maintain this car for very little cost. There are lots of great videos on YouTube and these engines have lots of room for you to work in. I bought the car at 48k miles from a 93 year old lady for 1000$ in 2018, the original owner. I am currently at 70.8k miles and the car is running very strong with some maintenance done to keep it a good daily driver in todays standards. New alternator, battery, water pump, complete coil pack assembly, fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs and wires, crank position sensor, sway bar links and bushings, radiator hoses, brakes and rotors . All those parts were very affordable, most expensive was probably the coil pack assembly around like 200$. I get about 28mpg even coasting at 85mph. And 33mpg coasting around 70mph. But I get around 19-21 mpg in town driving.
