how many miles can you expect go with the average vehicle today?

at one time 100k miles was the most you could expect and most didnt get that far without needing engines and trannys rebuilt but toyotas would easily go 500k miles without needing engines and trannys rebuilt
in recent years things have improved to the point manufacturers have increased their engines life spans to get an average of 250k miles without needing engines rebuilt, but the trannys still usually go at around 100k miles
and any vehicle you buy today with the new CTV tannys will fail at 60k-75k miles almost like clockwork
these seem to be the set in stone average norms for vehicles today, but what is the most miles you have gotten, or you are still getting, from a vehicle without it needing to be rebuilt?

So many variables to that question

Hoping for 250k on mine. I’m at 140k now. I need it to last 8 more years so I can drive it in Cruising the Coast.

When is this stupid fallacy going to die on the OT? Within my immediate family are 3 vehicles with CVTs all with over 100k miles and no rebuilds.

at least to the next gas station

They are called trans missions you cuck
Posted on 2/22/19 at 10:08 am to keakar
I still rarely see 100k in my vehicles. I drive about 8-9k per year and after having the same vehicle for 9-10 years I'm tired of it and ready for something different.

according to Eli Goldfinger you can pretty much expect 250k miles from any vehicle nowadays, not just Toyota
Posted on 2/22/19 at 10:10 am to keakar
Sold my last Tundra with 220K. Never did anything but oil changes, tires, and brakes. I’d be willing to bet that half of those miles were pulling a boat as well.
Expect the same or better out of my current Tundra.

i remember a time when all vehicles except toyota would only go 45k miles then explode all the while every toyota on the road would go 894k miles with just 11 oil changes.

Whats the backstory?
Posted on 2/22/19 at 10:11 am to keakar
232,000 on my 1997 4–Runner. Not even broken in yet.

Backstory of what? So many threads on the OT talk about CVTs like they just grenade randomly. That was a thing with Nissans over a decade ago, and is so far from truth now.

2001 Porsche Carrera. I have replaced several parts, water pump, oil separator but other than that just regular maintenance.

Yeah right. Dad's 4Runner slung a rod at 67k and my mother's Camry had the passenger front door nearly fall off the car from hinges not being bolted in tight. That was back when Toyota was really pushing their quality controls. I've got 240k on a 2003 2.3L Ranger, can easily go another 240k. The main factor is routine maintenance. For decades, imports cost more and their owners were more diligent on maintenance. The top slots for the highest avsrage mileage vehicles are almost entirely full-size trucks and SUV's, heavier-duty parts and truck owners tend to take more interest in maintenance.

I have a Toyota so anything less than 800k will be disappoint
Posted on 2/22/19 at 10:29 am to keakar
Have 185K on my '03 Lexus LX470 (Land Cruiser). I will be very disappointed if I don't get 600K out of it.

but the trannys still usually go at around 100k miles
