I'll buy that statement in most cases. However back in the day when I was a teenager / young adult if you could get a car to a hundred thousand miles you did good and it was pretty well worn out.
Forward from the last decade-plus into today cars are made much better last way longer then they did back in the day. It's almost a given that any car can hit 200000 miles today with proper maintenance which is way simpler than it used to be.
Hell you don't even have to change plugs belts hoses antifreeze for at least the first hundred thousand miles. Front end alignments are almost non-existent or necessary
