The cast-iron Slant-6, nicknamed the "Leaning Tower of Power," earned a reputation as an engine that simply refused to die, with many units sailing past 200,000 miles without a major rebuild. It became the default workhorse for economy cars, police cruisers, mail trucks, and commercial fleets for decades. The 225 Slant-Six was offered in the M-body Fifth Avenue through the 1983 model year, after which it was dropped.
