[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3588996, member: 15054"] When I hear stuff like that I wonder how many miles the person put on the car and did they keep it until it puked. or did they trade it off with under 200,000 miles on it. 5 Datsun Z cars 240-280's every one made 300,000 NO repairs except brakes and filters and oil. Original clutches struts and all. 200 and 250 inline 6 fords I have had many and one went 300,000 also and then a starter went out. That was a 1982 Mustang. Car eventually fell apart at 376,000 miles. Engine , trans and rearend were still perfect and were donated to another vehicle. 1989 Escort made 250,000 before the trans decided to slip a bit sometimes. Made 275,000 and I traded it for a 70,000 mile 1995 Corolla which now has over 350,000 miles on it. No major repairs. Anything should go 200,000 without issue in my book if it is reliable. I drive my stuff hard also and my Z cars and Mustangs had trailer hitches and pulled stupid loads that i should not be pulling. I do not show my cars much mercy. I would sincerely hope the "bugs" are worked out of all 2020-2021 vehicles. If you can't get 400,000 miles from todays technology then the manufacturers have stuck it to you once again. [/QUOTE]
