Like keith said you guys are rookies. Me and my wife have always put atleast 250,000 mi. before thinking new. Just bought a new Jeep Wrangler but kept her older Grand Cherokee with 287,000. Here 84 Monte Carlo had 330,000 mi. V6. Her 72 Monte Carlo had 250,000 and the timming chain went and I gave it to my nefhew and it became a pizza delivery car. Shoulda keep that one to restore. My 2003 Ford deisel has 190,000mi. and I've been retired for 2 yrs. My 1990 chevy pickup is all restored and sits in the garage with 330,000mi. at 230,000 I let my brother borrow it and the thermastate stuck and the bonehead cooked the motor so I got a crate motor.
