After driving dozens of these are at work, I would bet money that a properly maintained one would outlast any new car on the market. The way these things got beat on is beyond words, driven around with very, very low oil or any other fluid, running 24/7, the list goes on. Fleet vehicles DO NOT always get proper maintenance; I know ours didn't. Great cars! Sorry the writer got a lemon.

Why buy a car with over 100k on it? It's bound to cost repairs out of warranty too I might add. I like buying 2 years old with under 15000 miles on them. There is plenty of warranty left. Cars are for sale from dealers all over the Internet at great pricing. Nowadays you can get one with exact options and even down to the exact color you want. If you gave cash in hand you can do a 100 even 250 mile vehicle search and drive it home. Doing this I have gotten better buys than even the one that ships the cars from other dealerships. Their prices are good, but fixed no haggling. I found many dealers have Internet pricing yet they want you to buy. I would rather keep what I have for a while. Then pay cash for one with little miles but with at least a year warranty left. I had new Marquis and they were very reliable back then. Sold before they hit 50k miles. I don't buy brand new cars now, but certainly don't shop for cars over 100k miles with at best a 30-60 day warranty.
