I bought a new Accord in 1990. It lasted ten years, had 325,000 miles. It couldn’t be killed. While I merged to get on the Pennsylvania Turnpike an eighteen wheeler totaled it. I walked away so I’m happy. Honda’s are great cars.

They'll always pay you back too. As they hold their value better than their competitors, finance companies will refinance your Honda mid-loan. If you should suddenly find yourself in need of an extra thousand or two.

Lexus and Toyota dominate this list. What a surprise. 😎 Edit: Many clowns like to point out that these brands are from the same manufacturer. Everyone knows this. You're not smarter than anyone else. You still call a Toyota a Toyota and a Lexus a Lexus, even if the engine etc is made by Toyota. There are still many features that differentiate these brands from one another. Or should we call the iPhone a Samsung 'cause its displays are made by Samsung? Should we call a Lamborghini a Volkswagen because Volkswagen owns Lamborghini and many other german brands? 🤡

1979-1990 Volvo 740 turbo and non turbo wagon and sedan. Drove my 1990 740 turbo wagon to 850k miles had it for 8 years and sold it for what I paid for it and it ran perfect the way I bought it. That car exceeded all maintenance requirements. All i did was change the tires and battery and it never ever broke down on me. Best and most reliable car I ever had both mechanically and cosmetically. It was solid comfortable and built well. It was even fast too it was fun to see the faces when I beat jaguars Harleys and most sports cars at the lights in an old station wagon. I mean I would fly over speed bumps like I was in a monster truck and the suspension never showed any sighns of wear down at all. When I was helping a friend move his bed did not fit in fit in his van but yet it fit in my volvo I regret selling it biggest mistake I ever made. The crown vic I also agree with. My grandfather bought one new and had it till he died it was fast brisk smooth and solid.

I replaced the shocks & struts at 210,000. They were shot. But delaying replacement paid off because all 4 Monroe OE Spectrums were only $55 total on clearance. My left CV axle was only $28. The boot was split for 13 years, so I just packed grease in it every oil change. The bearing didn't fail but the damper rotted & it developed bad torque steer, so I replaced it last year. One of the benefits of owning a vehicle long term from new is you get to experiment on things to see how long they'll last. The Maxima has been a fantastically reliable car. Too bad Nissan quality went downhill in the mid 2000s. I bought my 1986 S10 4wd truck new too, and it's been a good truck, but nowhere near the quality of the Maxima.

In my lifetime as a mechanic, I have seen in real life 6 vehicles with over a million miles on them, 4 were GM trucks, 2 were GM cars, I owned one of them, 93 Olds Cutlass Supreme, one million three hundred thousand plus, the world record holder, documented, is a 70 Camaro, today the known best vehicle ever built is the 96, 97 and 98 full size Chevy trucks, will run the most miles with the least maintenance.

Not sure why the 4Runner isn't on here. Statistically I believe it's the #1 rated SUV to make it to both 300k and 400k miles. Any vehicle lasting 1,000,000 is going to be very unlikely without an engine and/or transmission replacement. Yes, I'm sure there are a handful that make it, but definitely going to be the exception rather than the rule.

It spun the car around and slammed it into a telephone pole. It was smashed on every single panel and monetarily totalled but still drivable.

Hilarious! I had a 2005 Toyota Tacoma PU with a manual tranny I bought from a dealership, it had 112,000mi. This truck was either beat to death or a complete POS. I was told by the dealer the tranny had been rebuilt but then fourth gear started giving me issues so I took it back. They supposedly rebuilt it again. Next, third gear and then second so I took it to another Toyota dealership, explained the situation but said I bought from a private party. Turned out the tranny had not been rebuilt, it was not even a Toyota tranny but some POS aftermarket rebuild. Went back to dealer with report and said I was going to sue for fraud. Dealer took truck back and refunded monies. Next was my 1998 Toyota Camery I bought used in 2002 and had 30kmi. That POS needed a full valve job and timing belt at 54k. Next up was my 2005 Honda Civic, had 40k which was fine for about 10k until it started overheating. Turned out it had a cracked head which was a problem on this year but never recalled. I always do my due diligence but always wind up getting screwed. I told my wife next car I get that the prior owner drove like he / she stole it is gonna get a visit from me and they will not be happy when I show up at their home for reimbursement. Best vehicle I ever had was a 98' Saab S5 convertible. Drove that for over 200k so when I sold it the mileage was around 250k and never had a problem. Why did I sell it? Because I was a stupid moron that's why. Once of the biggest mistakes of my life as that car was awesome!

Nice video ! I had a 95 ES300 and a 92 SC400 ( v8 ) . both were Great cars. The V6 Hondas and Acuras from late 90s with an automatic transmission had lots of problems up until about 2005 . now Ive got an 05 Acura tl with the 6 speed . I love it . Ive had several Corollas and Camrys . Its a great choice for a 1st car . The 2.2 liter motors are excellent .

You are right. The Mazda MX-5 seem to last and the manual is far better than the auto.

Mazda's however are killed by rust but are way better than the old fiats . The 1300 TC motors flew but you would feel like Fred Flintstone with your feet through the floor pushing it along. So much for the fiat multipla also but the Ducati vans and the mercedes diesel vans also rusted really badly especially those made in Italy and Spain where the lottery of quality would depend on what day of the week it was made and Monday and Friday would be the worst. Can't beat Japanese quality but even those need Waxoll wax treatment and galvanising paint protectio in order to last. Those old Toyota Hilux and Hiace vans from the early 1980s went on a long time even well overloaded in Pakistan Hindu Kush mountains in wintertime. Even the old ford transits of that age were still going. They just patch and weld them up.

I won't touch a Crown Victoria after learning about the defect in the rear of the chassis. As a "fix" Ford installed a composite blast guard between the fuel tank and under body. They have been known to explode if hit hard into the rear. I discovered this in rhe wake of a police officer killed when his cruiser exploded when rear ended by a distracted driver while monitoring traffic on the side of a highway.

I used to be a die-hard GM guy, after the Chevy Cruze 2014 was in the shop 52 times in the first year and they couldn't fix it I replaced it with a 2017 Malibu that was in the shop 24 times and had less than 30,000 mi on it replaced it with an 09 Lexus RX 350 113,000 mi not a problem in the last three years just wiper blades oil gas and tires. Gone are the days of American reliability, even the crown Vic is just a memory now.

My 2011 Crown Victoria already has around 130,000 miles on it. It runs just fine. A friend of mine has a 2004 F-150 with the same motor. He's got around 500,000 miles on that truck and motor. People keep telling me my Crown Vic ain't broke in yet. I may swap it for a Grand Marquis or a Town Car. Of course, I'd be getting basically what I already have. There is not a car...not a car, now, that's built today, that I'd rather have than what I already have. I want a big rear-wheel drive four door sedan. I also want a truck.

Only two vehicles I owned past 22 years! Have 01 F150 I bought new with 260, 000 miles without any major problems and 3 years ago picked up a clean 1999 Grand Marquis LS with 60,000 miles for $3,000 that is an absolute dream to drive. The MGMs or Town Cars tend to attract older retired crowd who take better care and drive fewer miles and eventually are sold by their estate who just want to get rid of them which is a good combination of circumstances.

@@homiesenatep My 2011 Crown Vic has almost 131,000 miles on it. It runs good, but is drinking the gas. I think I need to change the fuel filter. Now my fuel filter is under the car, I believe somewhere near my right back door. I've had both shoulders and both knees replaced. It's getting harder for me to work underneath a car. I'm not elderly yet. Now this coming August 16, I will become elderly when I turn seventy. I'm just old right now. I may just pay someone to replace my fuel filter. Is it hard to do, to change the fuel filter? If the car had been built in the early 1970s, I'd no trouble working on it, but these newer cars...well, that's another story. I change the oil, oil filter, and air filter regularly. I wish the fuel filter was somewhere in the engine compartment. I may see if there is some way I could move the fuel filter to somewhere in the engine compartment.

Number of miles with the same engine and transmission is when it really counts. What is the point of having a car going over 500K when you had to rebuild the engine or replace the transmission? I suppose most cars would go over 500K under the same circumstances. I had a saturn that went 0ver 370K before we got rid of it (never replaced transmission nor engine) and was still running fine.

The one I purchased is the Crown Victoria P71 Interceptor. I love the fact that it has additional coolers on the motor, transmission, radiator and a heavy duty generator. It also has a very good safety record. It is known to be able to survive a rear end collision from a 55MPH HIT. The 2011 comes with a 4.6 liter V8 that produces 250HP.

I had a 1999 Lexus ES300 Coach Edition. It was a great car, but there was a prevalent concern with the charging system. This car cooked batteries. In 2018, my brother had a 1997 ES300 with the same exact issue. I knew it could not an isolated case. Did anyone else have the same issues? Lexus could never figure it out.
