This is how you get 200K+ miles out of a car. Of course, has to be decently designed and reliable in the first place.

Our 1993 4Runner is hitting the 200K mark without any major repairs. Knock on wood. Think that it still has the original clutch too. Funny. I don’t remember replacing it. Lol. My son learned to drive a clutch using it. So it is probably due.

IMO, cars with sticks last longer than auto trans. cars. You will go through brake pads many times over on an auto trans. vs. a manual trans. Manuals get better gas mileage, too.

I HIGHLY recommend getting an engine with TURBO. You get power when you want it but can drive conservatively to get better gas mileage if so desired.

I am FULL of advice and perhaps maybe full of IT. LOL
