I drive a 1991 Toyota Previa which hit 202,200+ miles on the way to work today. Have had virtually no problems with it. At 195,000 I had to replace the cap and rotor because it started arcing. Oh, and the AC just had to be repaired.

My goal is 300,000 miles before I consider getting rid of it.

Our other car is a four-yr. old Corolla that we've had no problems with so far. I hate buying the darn things. I have no respect for car dealers, not any of the ones I've had the misfortune to come in contact with at any rate.

Crown vics are well-nigh indestructible. I just turned over 100k miles, and I'm rolling toward 200k.

LOL. Ya think so? I think that's something like a 60k-100k mile part, You're not really supposed to leave them in until they arc. LOL
