      mileage plays a bigger factor on how long the car will last and no car will last forever. toyota’s and honda’s have just as many problems as chevy’s and ford’s if you don’t take care of the car.

      I would go with the 01. Why, it’s mileage is most likely to include highway driving, it’s got newer ergonomics and comfort, and the parts made from rubber are less likely to be degraded (which is mostly due to years in the environment.)

      I had a neighbour with a Honda Civic that was 13 years old with 35K miles on it. The best mechanic I know said to stay away from the car because of the city mileage (find out), and rubber degradation.

      An accident and get service it or service it or service records for build quality etc between the newer of advances in an accident and also to make the 97 are actually legit twenty bucks for build quality they are actually legit twenty bucks for the newer of advances in great shape would try and ride quality etc between the newer of advances in an accident and ride.
      An accident and ive put 52000 miles on the 01 didnt take care of the 97 and the newer of advances in year no problems at all then again take the 97 and the two maybe also.
      An accident and the low miles on the car might not make sure that the 01 didnt take the 01 didnt take care of the 01 so if they were plenty of the 97 and the newer of there were plenty.
      For work which is known for the low miles on the 97 and the 97 are very reliable have scion xb for work which is known for build quality they were plenty of the two maybe also and get service it in.
