dodges will last 300 thousand and then some,i cant give you a personal guarantee that the particular one you buy will last 300 thousand but i can say all the ones i own are approaching 250 thousand miles and still going real good,regardless of what you hear about dodges they really are good cars,there's not enough cons about the new challenger to talk about, more pro,s than cons on this car,my neighbor owns an 08 model and loves it,his is an srt-8 model though so its not the best on gas but not the worst either, the base model car is a good car though i test drove one to see,good luck.
