That story is repeated over and over with most brands. 100K used to be a milestone. It really isn't now. Interiors, and paint, wear out before most mechanicals these days. All this happens with very little hands on issues...remember "vapor lock"? Car work now better than ever.
My 99toyota prerunner just turned 300,000 and still get 20 mpg. Never any problems and has never left me stranded on the side of the road. Best vehicle I have ever owned!
