I mean that is a 13+ year old vehicle as well. Idk, i feel like Japanese cars are the definition of reliability...but, I've never run up a vehicle beyond 125,000 miles let alone 75,000. Maybe hybrids have a shorter lifespan? or require more major repairs past 10 years? I definitely do not want to go German. Have had a BMW with a plethora of issues and heard horror stories about VWs from friends.
