What do I know
Toyota has it down. My '08 Camry had 405,000 miles and was running like a top when I got rid of it for the Tundra. Basic 5 speed. Two water pumps, one alternator, one radiator, one A/C compressor and a clutch finally at 370,000. I may have swapped out the front rotors, and of course pads and sets of plugs. That's about it over fourteen years. On the flip side, that 4 cyl was one of the engines that used oil from day one, and by the time Toyota got around to offering a warranty for excessive oil usage, I already had 252,000 miles on it. Toyota put new rings and pistons in it for me, for free, and it never used a drop its last 150,000 miles.
Thats .....a decent value.... and replacing the rings at that milage....the way all companies should work
Cars these-days are built for around 100K miles....
Well, don't forget the most important part of buying a new vehicle . . .

Nothing like those GRANDbabies! Mrs. BamaMike and I have 3.
BTW, they will call you whatever they want and you will be thrilled the first time you hear it from them. I remember standing in church, after the service and grandson #1 came up and called me papa. Incredible experience.

Loved the Midget. I learned to drive in a blue one about like this. Totaled it in '79 coming down the side of a mountain east of Huntsville. Damn near killed me and I still have the scars.
...during that same time period (mid-70s) one of my Brothers-In-Law had a Triumph Spitfire MK2 - which also looked and drove a lot like the Midget...to me anyway. Not sure I could fit my big ass in either one at this point. Even if I could I'd look like 50 lbs of pork in a 40lb bag.
.....that particular toy looks like it'd be a blast to zip around town in....especially with all the autumn stuff going on right now.
We've had two Tahoes. I think they are 200,000 mile vehicles, but for us the last 40,000 ramped up costs.
Back to the Tundra, an oil change with the V-8 is 8 1/2 quarts. That adds up, even using Costco synthetic.
