You all need to go be poor somewhere else. Why would you keep a vehicle that has over 50k miles on it? Hell, even 50k is old.

Just like your 2002 Dodge Ram, 1992 Ford Explorer? I bet they have not hit 50k yet:P

impressive. its not uncommon for a turbo diesel to make it that, but you dont see very many gasoline engines do that.

I have seen more 2000+ Diesel trucks over 300k then I have seen of any other cars put together. I guess thats what happens when your dad works on them.

What does a timing belt snapping have to do with leaving you stranded?? You just throw a new one on and go.

And im guessing if they made it 900k+ miles on it, they were probably decent about getting services done, which the timing belt should be done every 100k, hence 9 belts. I have never seen a timing belt snap on a honda under 140k.

theres 4 or 5 miatas with over 500k. one with 900k but its had like 12 transmissions or something ridiculous(some old guy who had 10 kids and let them all drive it as their first car

A LOT of people have done it too. So buy a brand new toyota and drive the F out of it.

Still though, having all the records and documentation with that old comet is were it's true value comes from, a car with a story and history is worth far more than somebodies daily driver.
It does speak about the quality of American cars, back in the day, when quality was emphasized over quantity.
