tennisshoes- good morning. Thank you for sharing this story. I've
read that cars wear less once they're up to cruising speeds, which is
why I do know someone who had almost 300,000 miles on his 2010
Subaru Outback 2.5 with the CVT, until it was damaged in an
accident. The reason I asked this question, is that, I noticed that a
recent post on the forum discussed saying goodbye to a 1996
Subaru because the bottom of the engine is so fragile, but, my 1995
Honda Accord that I sold to a family member is still going as strong
as ever with over 150,000 miles and 21 years old. And yet, I've
heard from others that their mid 2000s Accord's fell apart around
100,000 miles. Honda had a span of rocky years from 2002 to
2008. When you purchase a new car, you EXPECT it to be as good
or BETTER than the ones preceding it? It's a JOLT when that blows
up in your face.
