[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2016 is a very late model car. 80,000 miles is an insane amount of miles in that short of time. If you were towing or off road not surprising. Honestly, you should be able to find that tranny in a junkyard. 99 percent of totalled 2016 will have way less miles. Some junk yards install the part and give a 90 day warranty. [/quote] To achieve 80,000 miles in 3 years, it's a good bet that the vast majority of those miles are highway miles. Highway miles are THE easiest miles a vehicle does: they are consistent speeds, very little demand in terms of engine output, very consistent oil pressure, and the engine cooling system is working at absolute maximum efficiency in terms of removing heat from the engine. If cars only did highway miles and nothing else, most vehicles would last well past 500,000 or more miles. -auto technician [/quote]
