i lies I didn’t consider trucks I bought in HS.
Probably my 2000 z71 with 108,000 miles on it. I had 2 project trucks then a 72 Chevy and a 77 K5 blazer but not sure how many miles they had. Odometer didn’t work anymore

220,000ish
Sold it somewhere around 280. It was my 2nd vehicle. It's still pulling gooseneck trailers around, fantastic truck. Those early 2000 3/4 ton gas chevrolets were great. Super reliable and super cheap to repair. Not super cheap to fuel up though

I bought a 69 El Camino for a dollar and it had about 100k on it. Drove for a year or so with only putting a battery in it and sold it for $1500.00
Turn the am radio on and count to 27 before it worked. Baseball bat beating on the roof for a horn.

I bought a 2003 Montero Sport a couple years ago with around 220k miles on it. Paid the dude $1000 and put an alternator and did a complete brake job.
That thing is fun to beat around the mountain or take to the lake. Still runs great and I've put almost another 50k on it.

When the Little Füts first started driving (while in High School), I'd buy them used vehicles for their first cars.
The females got Japanese sedans and the boy got an old truck from our work fleet. Acura 3.5 RL & a Lexus ES330 each with about 60k-70k and a base Chevrolet Silverado with around 120K on it.
No major issues with any of them, a window regulator, etc.
Once each of them got around their sophomore year of college I got them a new Honda Accord sedan.
That way no favoritism could be claimed and those Hondas performed well.
Previous to those used cars, my last used car was a ‘70 Cutlass the old man got for me while I was in High School.

Bought a F250 with 230k for $1800. It’s been used as a work truck daily for 6 years now. 2 sets of tires and regular maintenance. No signs of stopping any time soon.

I got an ‘83 Toyota Celica. I think it had 80’ishK when I bought it. No idea what it had when I traded it in finally. By the time I got rid of it, the odometer didn’t work. The gas gauge didn’t work so I stopped about every 200 miles for gas. The passenger door outside key hole was missing so I had to unlock from the inside, the drivers side door, had to hold the handle in place open the door it would fall out. The seat was torn up I had to sit on a towel or the seat would mess up my clothes. AC crapped out is why I got rid of it. I lived in Houston at the time. It was my favorite car of all time. I still miss that car.
44K on 2009 Mazda 3 in 2010. And when I traded it in 8 years later it still had less than 100K. My new car only had 8 miles when I got it in October. I don’t drive too much.

What year and engine

01 gas.
I also bought a 04 6.0 diesel that I should have gave away the day I bought it.
Every gain I have obtained by the 01 was taken away by the 6.0.
