I hit 249,950 miles the other day but kept forgetting to check the odometer. Just remembered today and thought I’d share .
Is yours a CVT or manual?

CVT. Factory made.

People always say the CVT is the worst from that year, but clearly you’re proving them wrong.
I had a 2015 manual EX and now I’ve got an 18 CVT. A lot of the complaints about the 2015 CVT are just myths.

That’s impressive for a CVT! How often did you change the fluid, and what type did you use?
Wow, congrats! Any tips for getting it to last this long?

Stick to the maintenance everyone suggests for the third gens. For the transmission, I flushed and changed the oil based on mileage rather than waiting for the oil life indicator. Early on, I stretched the oil changes to 10-5% oil life, and it eventually caught up to me at 205,000 miles when I had to replace the timing chain for $1,300. Other than that, no major repairs.
A lot of my mileage comes from highway driving. I do a 90-mile round trip on I-35 in Central Texas several times a week. Most of it is cruise control at 75 mph, with minimal traffic. My wife traded up to a CRV in 2019, and I took over this car at 78,000 miles. Before that, we used it for long trips to Amarillo.

Surviving I-35 that often is an achievement in itself! This gives me hope for my 2018.
Mine hasn’t even hit 100k yet. Still feels like new compared to this.

Same here. I just passed 75,000 last week with my 2015 .
You all drive way more than I do.

Unfortunately, but at least it gets over 30 mpg .
I’m still in my 09, almost at 200k. Feels like I’m getting left behind.
That’s amazing! Haven’t seen a third gen with that many miles before.

Someone here mentioned hitting 400k, if I remember correctly.

That’s crazy to think about.

Here’s a similar example someone shared: https://thisforum.com/hondafit/s/zQEd99caSO
My goal is to beat the 231k I got on my 01 Sport Trac with my 15 Fit.
That’s great news.
Good to hear.
