I would recommend pretty much any Japanese vehicle. Look closely at Honda or Toyota. I have had good experiences with Hondas, personally.

I want to be that person posting a picture of the odometer hitting 300k miles.

I am at ~280k in my Honda Insight, my dad is ~320k in his Accord, and my mom is at ~400k in her Odyssey. My husband is at ~186k in his Civic, but he doesn’t drive much.

Ah that’s a bummer, have a plan to fix it? My IMA went out, so I installed a bypass board that makes the dummy lights go out, but I don’t get any assist. Saving up for lithium batteries.

Noice! CVT or 5-speed?

Yes, my cars have mostly all been standard. Northeast US. Mid-20s. Current car (2000 Honda Insight) is manual.
