Honda Hybrid over 260,000
I would like to hear some feedback on whether or not to invest in a 260000 mile HCH, 2004 in real good condition, but lots of highway miles. How long can this thing last--what is the real cut-off point of no return?
Thanks!
Thanks!

There's no way to say what it would be worth. Probably worth what someone will pay.
If the maintenance is up, she should last for quite a few more miles. I have a 2003 HCH with 210,000 on it and still get around 50 mpg. Battery was changed at 120,000 under warranty.
I would really be aware of the tranny if its a CVT. That's kind of the weak link.

I'm coming up on 280,000 miles on my 2003 HCH with manual transmission. The IMA battery has never been replaced even though the IMA/CEL lights have been on since about 175,000. I don't get much assist any more, and auto stop isn't as consistent as it was, but as long as the DC-DC converter charges my 12V battery I will keep driving it (barring an ICE or other major failure). The car has never stranded me.
If I could find a first generation HCH with under 125,000 miles I would be willing to part with $5,000. With 260,000 miles I wouldn't go much more than a grand.
My 2 cents....
