Maybe...maybe NOT. This gal got a million miles in a Hyundai...original powertrain:
She musta' got a lemon. I've never had a Hyundai that didn't go 1.5 million miles or more. In all that time, I've never had to replace a spark plug or coil, engine belt, starter motor, O2 sensor, catalytic converter, air mass meter, PCV valve, air filter, heck, I've never even changed the oil on a Hyundai.
Oh, wait, I've never owned a Hyundai! Actually, her case is believable, she admits she drove it 24/7 (which I'm sure is just a general way to say she drove it continuously, except to eat and sleep for the most part). I mean she averaged 548 miles a day for 365 days for 5 years. And she didn't say how much she spent on replacement parts, oil changes, etc.
But you have to be careful of these fantastic stories of ICE cars that have gone 300,000 miles not needing anything but oil changes. Sure, maybe there's a few of them out there somewhere but that is not most peoples experience. Yet there are a lot of Internet myths about how inexpensive it is to run various models of ICE cars for 250,000 miles or more without ever even needing an engine accessory belt, etc., just an oil change every 10,000 miles. These stories inevitably come from people with either very bad memories or who are just making it up. Wait, who would make something like that up? I mean, it's the Internet!
