newer vs lower mileage
All other things being about equal.... is a person better off buying (for example) 1) a 8 yr old Class B with 60,000 miles or 2) a 12 yr old class B with 30,000 miles

The 8 year old with 60K miles, is still a pretty low mileage vehicle. I would go with that.
well that is just what I turned in my SUV and am starting looking for a newer one. when I go to various used car dealers my cut off is always 50,000 miles.

My parents were like that. My minivan just passed 200K miles (and is more reliable now than any car I have ever owned). Our SUV and TV has about 130K - it is also amazingly reliable, but after the minivan, I just sort of expect cars to be that good. Both are Toyotas - older models.
I'm driving my 4th Toyota and would take a lot of convincing to buy anything else for a personal vehicle. If Toyota sold a full-size van in the US I would buy one in a heartbeat to custom-build my own class B.
