I own a '01 Ford Taurus w/ 102,000 miles on it; gets 22 MPG. I commute 150 miles per day to & from work. So, on average, I put about 40,000 miles a year on my vehicles.

My Taurus, even though it has a lot of miles on it, is still solid. But, I'm thinking of getting a '07 FEH 2WD not only to help the environment but also because I would like to start driving an SUV back & forth to work - it just might be 'more fun.'

How many miles do you think the FEH is good for before I would have 'run into the ground?' 100,000? 200,000? More? I'm asking because I would have used up the power train warranty in 18 months and the hybrid warranty in 2.5 years. My bumper-to-bumper would last less than a year because of the miles I drive.

So, how are your experiences with the hybird? Do you think it's a car that will stay reliable for 200,000 miles or more? Or, after driving it, does it feel like it will start falling apart after the first 100,000?
