What Is Considered High Mileage for a Used Car?

We are not going to sugarcoat it, repairing and servicing your vehicle over time can be expensive. Usually, the high mileage for a vehicle is around 100,000 miles. Typically, Winston Salem are known for putting up to 10,000-12,000 miles per year on their vehicle. Here are some other factors to consider: 

  • How many miles vs. age of the car: Age and mileage are two different factors to consider. For example, a two-year-old vehicle with 40,000 miles may be in worse shape than a 5-year-old car with 60,000 miles on.
  • Year of manufacture: Within the last decade, car manufacturers have improved in quality over the last few years. Learn more about low mileage used cars for sale at Terry Labonte Chevrolet.
  • Regularly Scheduled Maintenance: A vehicle with 15,000 miles may be in bad shape if it has not been serviced with regular maintenance over time. When purchasing, be sure to ask for proof of maintenance. 

Additional things to Consider When Buying a Used Car

  • Model Generation: Sometimes a newer model can feel like a downgrade when it goes through a redesign. Sometimes the vehicle may be improved with the redesign. Learn more with review websites like Kelley Blue Book or Edmunds.com.
  • Vehicle History Report: A vehicle history report will show you collisions history, police run ins, DMV records, and more. Be sure to ask your dealer for the vehicle history before making the investment. 
  • Location: The Vehicle History Report may differ depending on the location, such as if your vehicle is in a more humid area such as southern California.
  • Foreign Luxury Car Brands: Due to the cost of shipping high-end replacement OEM parts overseas, it can be expensive to repair a luxury vehicle. Learn more about CPO vehicles to find vehicles that have been repaired and inspected before being sold back to you at an affordable price.
