When I bought my Explorer I was looking for vehicles with 75K or less.

I guess it all depends on what kind of work has been done to it, I've got a 91 CRX with 275k miles on it. It's got a different motor and trany in it, I just had all the shocks/struts and all the brakes done a couple months ago. I still get 30 mpg in it and I wouldn't want to let it go for less then $2000, but I don't see anyone out there paying that much for a car that has 275k miles on it. It sure beats paying for gas in the lightning!!!!!

12-15,000 miles per year is what they say.
