How Many Miles Is High Mileage by Leun(op): 2:49pm On Feb 01, 2025
Ive been searching for a sienna but the mileage after I checked the VIN where high, also found out that most of our local dealers have tampered with the odo.

I recently checked one out yesterday, Vin says the odo is over 220m but this vehicle is sound, engine revs good, the body, no rust atleast from most part I checked..

There's even one Sienna here on NL that the odo is over actual 270k miles but them don run the odo street to 90k miles.

My question automobile lord's, should I go ahead? I checked iaai/copart and noticed alot of mileage sienna too, some over 250k,300k. This gives me the impression these seinna are work machines but I'm still thinking if I should go ahead with this purchase.

100,000 miles and above... High mileage

200,000 miles and above... Very high mileage

The reason the Sienna is sound is because of maintenance. Most people roll back Odo so as to sell as low mileage because high mileage vehicle should be cheaper. I have seen people buy mileage of 280k plus and vehicle still as very sound as it should. Hondas, Toyotas and some others have crossed the 500k mileage very well depending on maintenance.

Price
This is a major factor, most sienna I saw under 70k miles were over 9k dollars, plus 6k extra for shipping.
