Is 40,000 miles on a Ford Mustang 2011 V6 low mileage and a good buy? Around what mileage do the ford mustangs start needing work?
Cars has had 3 owners spent 2 years out east then came to California.
The car is a minimum of 6 years old so it hasn't been driven much, less than 7000 miles/yr
Get it checked out by a mechanic but there should be nothing wrong with it with that mileage.
Thats low mileage but sounds fishy almost too good to be true… If it looks new like it was a garage kept baby its probably a good car. If it looks weathered either it sat dead for years in a field or somebody pulled a low mile speedo out of a wreck or something…
Maybe, Nick. Has the seller shown you proof that it has been fully and properly serviced and maintained the last 7 years? That's critical in determining whether it is a good buy or not. If it has not had its scheduled services then the risk would be high.
What is the seller asking for this beast? Make sure you are receiving a fair deal.
It is low mileage for a 7 year old vehicle. Average miles is 12,000 per year. This car will be good for 60,000 more miles.
Check the undercarriage. It might be rusted out. Test drive the car. If everything checks ok, sounds like a good deal.
Hi so it's about treatment like lack of servicing and repairs which impact mostly on a cars resale value. So design parameters to day by even a audi, Volkswagen, skoda, porsche, is 7 years or 100 k miles which ever comes first.
Not that much really
3 owners in 6 years, this raises a red flag
THey car will be fine
40K miles on a well serviced 2011 car is nothing. Just keep it serviced and looked after and it should have years of life left.
Anyone telling you a modern car is designed to last "7 years or 100k miles"… Is an idiot.
- I have a 97 Ford Ranger, 4.0, in good shape, 102,000 miles and it doesn't start as well as I think it should. It cranks strong, and has new? Motorcraft plugs and fuel filter. I've cleaned the MAF sensor and throttle body and the truck runs fine and there's no misfire. Maybe I'm expecting too much, but I think the truck should start when I turn the key instead of having to crank 2-3 times. I've also installed a new IAC valve. Any suggestions on how to get the truck to start better?
- Looking at trading my 2011 Ford with 80k miles in with an engine knock for a newer jeep Patriot with low miles, Roll 3k negative equity? Ford Fusion has developed and Engine Knock and another mechanical issue. Thinking about getting it repaired or trading it in for a newer Jeep Patriot with low mileage. I would have to roll $3000 of negative equity over to new loan. Any thoughts?

- Is a 2011 Ford Escape XLT with 155,000 miles on it a good used car to buy? The asking price is? $9,300 cash. Looking for a car that safe, reliable, won't flip when turning on sharp curves, upcoming and maintenance fairly inexperience, and will last a long time. The one thing that I'm weary about with this high is that the miles are extremely high for a 2011.
