Oh gods, THIS. They don’t build them like they used to, and as a magazine article I once saw added, boy am I glad. You can expect 100,000 miles out of darn near anything with really nothing needed but oil and air filter changes. Just about any car on the market will last at least 150,000-200,000 miles without being…
