#1 of 3 Used Nissan Quest, expected life/milage by tbrinker Aug 30, 2007 (6:21 pm)
I was looking into a new Quest SE but they are too expnsive, so now I am looking into a used SE year 2004 or newer. What is the expected milage life of these vans? If they only typically last 100K miles then I would not want to buy one with 50K miles, but if they last 300K miles then that is a different story.

Replying to: tbrinker (Aug 30, 2007 6:21 pm) I agree it's pretty much difficult to pinpoint how long it will last. What I would do, is see if the previous owner kept the maintenance up on the vehicle. Get a CarFax and have a trusted mechanic complete a bumper to bumper. The Carfax reports are great but it can't tell you how well the owner treated the vehicle, but a good mechanic can. He'll let you know if it's been driven hard and abused. Don't go to their mechanic find your own!
