Don't get this. I had a CR-V from 1996 (over 300k), sold it a few years ago, and can still see it cruising around the town. My previous Toyota Yaris was pretty much unkillable, just like a RAV 4 or a 1998 TLC.

You must live somewhere absolutely bone dry where it never gets cold enough to salt the road.

We were putting Toyota Hiluxes back to the leasing company at three years and they were going straight in the crusher.
