Agreed. I don't suspect "you are most people" but you can try to convince me otherwise.

What I said was what I think most people do. Not what is possible.

Do a lot of people sell a car that’s never once left them stranded at under 175K miles out of concern? Sure.

But I think most people who daily drive 175K mile cars would rely on them for a road trip without much consternation.

Almost no one does maintenance regular enough to have cars that haven’t grenaded something well before that point.

I know people that have literally never changed their oil.

One plus for electric cars though, fewer side effects for that kind of thing I guess?
