Q: Buying a high mileage car and I am on a tight budget.
I have been trying to research as much as possible the problems that are associated with a 2009 Nissan Murano and if buying one with 137k miles is crazy. The vehicle has a clean car fax but doesn't show much as far as service records. I just need an mechanics opinion if those cars are reliable enough to get to 250k miles. I have a family and need a family car but I am on a tight budget.
Thanks
My car has 137080 miles.
