Two generations of Civics were studied in our analysis, the seventh generation from 2000 to 2005 and the eighth generation from 2006 to 2011. The Sienna is the only minivan with all wheel drive as an option so if you want the look of a minivan, but driving dynamics of a car equipped with AWD, you're in luck.

KBB value to sell to a private party was around 5k-6k last time i looked. ... High mileage isn't so much of a concern as how good it's been kept and maintained. Post Reply.

Some Crown Vics may have been owned by the town elders, but typically the Grand Marquis and Town Car were reserved for the greatest generation.

Primarily owned by car service companies or people who found Elvis' dance moves offensive, the Town Car is reminiscent of a different time. While Dodge trucks aren't as popular as the Silverado, Sierra or F250, they are still a smart pick when trying to save a buck or two over its more popular competitors. All three generations of the Toyota Sienna were covered in the study, but the second and third generations are the best options. Reliable, well priced and economical.

We already told you about the most reliable car brands, but now let's look at the top high mileage vehicles by class like compact, midsize, full size, crossover, SUV, pickup and minivan. A time when big V8 engines in an equally big car didn't mean inefficiency, it meant being American.

I come from a long line of BMWs where everything was pretty rock solid until at LEAST 100,000 miles, so i'm getting nervous. It's got 200,000 on it. The older Impalas we studied were built on the GM W platform which were used for over 26 years. Opinions?

Our study of the Odyssey included its second, third and fourth generations. Not sure what that might mean, someone's company car that got driven like a rental or maybe it part of a fleet that was impeccably maintained.Bought a Sequoia new in 2002(?)

This is all good news to me. It set the foundation for the design language you see on the newer Altimas.

Control arm bushings have a tendency to dry out, though that might be more of a western vehicle issue.

Two generation were studied in this analysis including the first generation, built from 2000 to 2007 and the second generation from 2008 to 2013. Whomever owned it took very good care of it. Thanks! Sub-forums.

Our study looked at the first and second generation Sedonas which are easy to find and significantly cheaper than any other minivan on this list. It isn't quite a luxury car like the TL, but it isn't quite an entry-level car like the Accord or Altima. A pre-delivery inspection should run about $100 and would be money well spent. The full size SUV was available in two sizes, one that's about the size of the Chevrolet Tahoe and another that's the size of the Suburban which is called the Expedition EL.

"My '01 had 243,000 miles on it, and I replaced it with a 2012 with 171,000. The Suburban and Yukon XL is a fully enclosed Silverado 1500 or Sierra 1500 with three rows of seats and enough room inside for a few Smart Cars. You might be surprised to find the Kia Rio on this list. It is also important to note the TL is the only luxury midsize car to top our highest mileage analysis. The Chevrolet Impala is sort of like the Avalon, front wheel drive and equipped with efficient V6 engines. This should last me a few years of regular driving. If space is key, either the Honda Pilot or Highlander will suit your family and both will last long enough to drive the kids' carpool to elementary school and then move them into college. Going 4wd with this purchase. The F150 is the only light duty truck on this list and it's the best selling vehicle in the United States.

Like the other heavy duty pickups, the Ram 2500 was available with a swath of engine choices so make sure you decide on a particular engine before buying.

The Silverado 2500 and Sierra 2500 are basically twins except for a nicer interior sported by the the Sierra 2500. Register FREE to Reply!
