Shush! Don't tell anybody, otherwise where will I buy a 6-8 year old car with 100K miles on it when mine give up the ghost?

Honestly, just buy a Honda or Toyota, and follow factory recommended maintenance. After 100K miles, they're just nicely broken in.

With my two vehicles (Insight at 160K, Toyota pickup at 225K) and the amount I drive them, they're likely to reach 500K miles just about the time I celebrate my 100th birthday.
