The last 10 or 20 years (or longer), just about any engine should run 250K+ miles with proper care. The reality is typically by the time the engine gives up the ghost, the rest of the vehicle is pretty worn out. I never consider the cost of an engine replacement with a gas vehicle purchase, I simply have no interest driving a vehicle with >200K miles.
