I remember when a car that wasn't a slant six Dart was on the downhill slide to the boneyard after 100,000 miles. It wasn't that you didn't expect it to go that far, but that you didn't expect it to go much further. My first car was done at 124k. My second showed a little over 100k when I gave up changing oil pumps in it. My third was still going at 140 or 150 when I sold it, but I heard it blew the motor soon after. My Dodge Dart gave its original engine to repower a Barracuda and was swapped over to V8 by me. It may still be out there somewhere. Then I stepped into the world of EFI and picked up a Lincoln with 96k on it. The engine was still strong at 156k, but the transmission was starting to act a little funny. OTOH, when I was a little kid, my mom had a Dodge Dart with the 225 that was driven to the bone yard with over 280k.

Much later I worked in a junk yard. FWD domestics usually came to us around 160k. Honda and Toyota were usually more like 240k. Subarus, Crown Vics, and Mercedes were frequently over 300k.
