Big 3 buyout...

my mom drove a dodge caravan for 195k miles, the only major overhaul it ever needed was a transmission at 125k or 150k miles.

i'm personally riding around in a ford focus with 170k+ miles on it... the clutch needed to be replaced before 100k, but not by much.

i dunno. it's all anecdotal. i've never seen any hard facts about 100K+ mileage reliability of domestic cars in the last 10 years, but I'm a graduate student (meaning I'm poor, and my friends are poor as well, hehe) so I do have lots of friends driving domestic cars with 100K+ miles on them, and it's just a completely different story than in high school, where my same group of friends were driving around in high-mileage domestic cars from the 80s 😛 edit: and needing lots of repairs on those cars.
 
Ford wants nothing to do with the bail out offer from what I read in the Paper today. They claim they're not that bad off like GM and can survive with the terms offered with the bailout.
