You asked for; "reliably." You didn't state needing an overhaul along the way to your "another couple hundred of thousands of miles."

If you can get "400- 500k" out of one, be my guest and go for it. IMO, few if any ever own them that long to report those miles, or put the repair dollars necessary into them to get to those miles.
