Not sure why you chose that particular mileage range, higher the better...

I'm currently @ 161k, this was taken July 2013.

Yeah, my 93 is about to hit 206,000.

No offense but your brother is an idiot if he sincerely believes that lol.

Your brother may feel that way if he doesn't maintain his cars properly, and thus always has problems with them as they reach that 100,000 miles. That's when a lot of cars get dumped by their neglectful owners. That's good for the shade tree mechanic as he can afford to get a nice car, and for doing some long overdue maintenance get a great ride for another 100.000 miles. The way the drive trains are now produced (close tolerance machining, improved designs, computer controlled engine management system, etc) has boosted the longevity and the performance of these packages. The biggest problems still remain to be rust, especially for those in the snow belt.

2000 Mercury Grand Marquis:

Has had 2 intakes replaced, one pair of cats, 2 COPs, axle/bearing, one set of shocks, idler arm, fuel pump.

It currently is leaking transmission fluid from the seal of the front pump (1/2 a pint in 60,000 miles) and uses a quart of oil every 5500 miles.
