This was back in 2006. 15+year old car that had 12k on it... and the car was loaded. I told her to will it to me when she dies(as a joke)She did pass a few years ago and I wondered if I would get a call lol

My 2003, purchased in October 2002, has 67K. And it was owned by a college student. And someone who went to grad school 7 hours away from home. Short commutes and short trips, with a few long ones in between...take away the long ones and I could see 25K.

I was proud of only 56k on my 2006, seeing that I take 3 & 6 hour trips every other month! I was just so surprised to see this kind of mileage on a Vibe. A 10-year old Crown Vic, sure, but a first model-year Vibe? Amazing!

its a trap. You go to see the car, next thing you know you wake up in a hotel bathtub full of ice next to a note that says "call 911"

I sold my nearly identical 2003 in early Feb. with 33,000 miles for $9,500. Tires had been changed at 20,000 under warranty. That seller of the '03 with 25,000 miles would probably take $8,500 and IMO that would be a good buy.I started driving my '09 in Feb. 2009. I am now at 9,075 and only because I had two 1,200 mile RT's to NC to visit my daughter.P.S. My 2007 T&C bought July 31, 2007 has just under 12,000 miles.

The best I've seen was a 1988 Pontiac GTA with, are your ready?.... 167 miles. They were trying to sell it for 30k+ silly people

My father in law (age 86) bought a brand new Scion Xb last year during cash for clunkers. It now has 600 miles on the clock.

If I had the cash, I would purchase this right now to replace our 2004 Vibe.

My 2004 only has 30K miles. That is what happens when you have 2 other cars to drive around.Perhaps the same situation with that Craigslist ad?
