...and the theory is, those old cars could have done 300,000 miles too, but consumer priorities were different and the very thing we love about old cars--the styling--is what led people to toss them aside after a couple years.
Besides, there are a few cars around right now that can't make it to 100K miles without major repairs and you might surprised that one of the problematic engines is made by Honda. Honda's L15 turbo four, you should see how much cost cutting went into that engine.
And really, the only way even new cars make it to 300K miles is if the owner takes care of maintenance.
If owners did the same to cars built in the Fifties and Sixties, they also would have lasted 300K miles. Many did.
Malaise Era cars don't count. They were too compromised.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
