Nah, that’s not why it was junk at 80k, I think that had something to do with it having the word FORD on the front. Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Steve, I've got 180K on my current Ford F250, and I expect 500K. Previous Ford was an '85 Bronco, which had 314K on it when I sold it.
My two '86 Isuzu Trooper II's reached 279K and 284K respectively. My Jeep Grand Cherokee had 242K when I sold it. My Ford Taurus had 202K when I traded it and my Jeep in on the current F250.
I've only had one vehicle in 20 years that didn't reach 200K miles, and it was a Buick. It died at 140K. We buried it.

It's not the brand of car but the character and constancy of the guy who maintains it that matters.
