If you love your car, you might dream of making it to the one-million-mile mark, too. But can it be done? The consensus seems to be that with regular maintenance and the necessary parts replacements over the years, most modern cars can go the distance.

According to Edmunds, the top five ways to make your car run “forever” are: Follow your service schedule, check fluids and tire pressure regularly, go easy during startup, use a single high-grade fuel, and drive smart. If you don’t know much about maintenance basics, there are plenty of online resources available, as well as your car dealership or your favorite mechanic.

Most experts agree the best way to make your car last longer is to religiously follow the maintenance schedule in your owner’s manual. In addition, make sure to check vital fluids every three months (especially engine oil and radiator coolant), pay attention to your car’s gauges, regularly wash the car, and store it in a covered place. Even good driving habits can help minimize regular wear and tear.
