To me there is a BIG difference between making it to 200K and making it to 200K with very few repairs.
Case in point. I use to own a Mazda. When I sold the thing it had over 250K on it and I put about 50 bucks in repairs in it over the years (An exaggeration for sure but not by much).
I now have an Acura with almost 200K on the clock. Worst car I have ever owned. Something is always going out in it or doesn't work. A lot of design flaws in this car. :M
If someone throws enough money at something you can keep it going for ever.
I want to know the repair bills on these trucks. That is what separates the men from the boys! :B
I agree that the cost to make it to 200k is a very important factor (I've said that here before).
Having said that there is some value when owners decided to keep their vehicle and invest in it to keep it on the road vs. deciding they had enough of it and sell it or perhaps the manufacturer is forced to buy it back. :B
