Whoa. I bought my 2003 XLT for less around 14 years ago. Had around 74k. Gas was around $4 a gallon and these trucks just sat on the dealer's lot.

2 vehicles of the same age, one with significantly less mileage than the other is worth $500-$1500 more than the higher mileage vehicle. Not loads and loads more $$.
But if you’d like to shell out all that extra money for a vehicle that has been parked (which isn’t the best thing for a vehicle), then by all means: I’m not stopping you.
If you say so.
If you think you can get a 2015 Expy with 40,000 miles on it for $500 more than one with 175,000 good on yah.
Value is a strange thing. What YOU value vs what I value are 2 different things. I don’t place much value on mileage.
Change my mind.
Mileage is directly tied to market value simply because it’s an indicator of wear and tear and/or remaining life expectancy plus cost of ownership.
The more worn ie mileage the sooner you’ll be replacing parts. Thus the reduction in values in the market.
There is certainly truth to the notion that an older car w low mileage can have as many repairs because it sat. The questions aren’t so black and white.
A 2015 w 60k miles is obviously worth more than one with 120k. That’s logical.
An individual’s preference however is a whole nudder ting.
