Vehicles With The Best Longevity
The Best Cars & Trucks For The Long Haul
GMAA’s List of 20 Cars That Keep Running, Well After 200,000 Miles
The longevity of a vehicle is one key factor that many consumers overlook when they purchase a vehicle. Instead they focus more on window sticker, fuel economy, features, color and financing. However longevity may be one of the most significant aspects of a vehicle purchase.
There have been several credible reports over the last few years about reliability and longevity of vehicles. GMAA has prepared a snapshot that might help consumers with their decisions when making their purchase… with your guidance of course. Note that economy cars do very well while expensive luxury vehicles failed to make our list. Additionally, certain brands did well, especially Honda and Toyota with Toyota dominating the list.
Obviously not every one of the vehicles below will be running after 200,000 miles. A lot depends on how the vehicle is cared for and, of course, how it is driven. However, many of the vehicles below could easily make it to over 300,000 miles. Now that’s a good deal!
