When shopping for a used vehicle in Lafayette, IN, the mileage is an important factor to consider. In general, the average driver puts about 12,000 miles per year on their car. So, a 5-year-old car would have approximately 60,000 miles. However, there's no hard and fast rule for how many miles is too many.
It really depends on factors like the vehicle make and model, how well it was maintained, and your personal driving needs. A high-mileage Toyota or Honda that has been regularly serviced could be a smarter purchase than a neglected vehicle with fewer miles. The best approach is to have any used car thoroughly inspected by a trusted mechanic before purchasing.
