I know each car is individual, but in general, how many miles do you think are good to keep the car and when would you get rid of it?
My concern is safety because I drive once a week a lot of miles through a very remote area that is blazing hot in summer. My finances dictate that either I get another car soon or hold off about five years. I just started biking to work daily for several reasons; one is to keep the miles off my E.
I have a 2003 that I bought new in 2004. It has 118K miles with rarely any mechanical problem. I get it serviced pretty regularly at the dealer.
I will ask the mechanic there this question next time it's serviced, but I don't know how unbiased an opinion I'll get from a company mechanic.
