ANY car can reach k miles if you put enough money into them. A better question would be how far you can get with the least amount of money. From my experience either of these should easily be able to reach k miles with little maintenance beyond normal maintenance. There is only one number to consider. Cost per mile. The Suzuki will probably provide the lowest cost all things considered. Does it really matter? There are not many people who care to keep a car for its entire life, either K miles or 20 years, whichever comes later.
All you really need to know is that each of the cars on your list will outlast your emotional attachment to it.
Frankly with proper care and no accidents most any car can do , to , miles. The reason few make it that far is lack of proper care or accidents. Not many cars will go , miles without a serious accident. When that accident happens the true value of the car is often less than the cost of repair so it get junked.
As others have already said, the longevity of a vehicle is largely dependent on you—namely how diligently you maintain the vehicle, and how you drive it. If you maintain it properly, monitor fluid levels regularly, follow up promptly on any unusual noises or vibrations, avoid potholes, etc.
So, I suggest that you choose a vehicle with a better-than-average record for frequency of repair this probably eliminates the Suzuki , and then care for the vehicle as if you want it to last forever. Some of the longevity is based on the type of vehicle.
The Honda and Toyota seem to be based on small trucks. It seems that there are fewer truck-like vehicles in the junkyard than cars. It could be because the utility vehicles are recycled to the maximum where cars are just crushed. My reasoning may be off if a lot more caes are sold than sport-utes.
In any case I think the Suzukis and the Subarus will be more problematic than the two others you listed. Keep your car out of the winter salt and hot southern summer sun and you have the beginning of keeping a car that you can drive far from home indefinitely. The next question is which car will have readily available parts after 10 years.
A popular model that changes little or was produced in the same form for several years is your best bet. In addition, I prefer a car that has plenty of dealers wherever you will go such as Chevrolet or Ford. The Subaru Forester and Outback get great ratings from Consumer Reports, but my personal experience with Subaru is that they are expensive to operate and maintain.
I much prefer my '97 Accord, however. It gets better mileage, is more comfortable, and costs less to maintain. There have been several Toyotas in my past, and all were extremely reliable and inexpensive to maintain.
Each is different. You can get a good one or a bad one. Roll the dice! That last slanderous comment is not true at all. We have a , mile Suzuki Forenza wagon with original motor and tranny still going strong. We have had 5 Suzuki's and they are the most reliable vehicles ever but you have to actually perform routine maintenance.
Thank you. I have a Suzuki Firenza I bought it used in with miles and it now has I got an excellent price on it. New Mexico. Lot of hghway miles. No accidents. I did unfortunately blow the head gasket and had to have the transmission replaced due to accidentally driving over a curb I didn't see and tearing a hole in the casing. But other than that just routine maintenance. The headlamp wiring was recalled by Suzuki but they fixed that right away. Only problem is now is the company no longer makes new parts for this model of vehicle.
So if something does break and need to be replaced they have to find a part off a junk car to replace it with. Trace answered 4 years ago.
We replaced the head gasket at , miles. A Suzuki Forenza with , miles should go another , miles plus if the maintenance schedule is followed in the owners manual. We get parts online with no problems and use a Suzuki dealer also. Suzuki will return to the USA in Consumer Reports hated Suzuki from the start and did a good job hurting the company until they left the US market. GuruY4TH5 answered 3 years ago. These are good cars. Yes they do have trans module problem any some other issues, but overall it's cheap.
It's not a Toyota nor a Honda. You get what you pay for. Take care of any vehicle and it'll last, point blank. I will say this unless you have owned a Suzuki you will never know how tough they are!! I'm on my 5th one and all Jane had over , miles they never need anything except general maintainer. GuruLMR7F answered 2 years ago. The dealer has spot painted it twice but it is really bad. I had it detailed twice but it doesn't help.
Other than this at 75, miles it's great. I wish the dealer would take care of this since this has been a problem since buying it or maybe Suzuki could. This is my 3rd Suzuki and I'm glad to hear they are coming back. Tarvarous33 answered about a year ago. I just brought a used suzuki forenza with , miles on it it drives good as ever I think I picked a good car any one has any thing I should know about it. Guru31XM2 answered about a year ago.
