pretty vague there, but you should take the type of engine and what sort of miles hwy/city, etc. I assume you are in the market for a Dak? ive got 122k. im sure someone else will chime in.

155000 is alot of miles on any car. If you're asking that Im surprised it lasted that long the answer is no. I have an 88 with over 250k miles and it still runs and drives.

Yeah it really all depends on the maintence done, highway vs. city miles, how the owner drove it, what engine and transmission the truck has... If its a 3.9 auto and wasn't taken care of. Its done for. Thats what I got myself into the first dakota i bought.

Need a lot more information than just the amount of miles. 155 miles on a well taken care of truck drive 75-80% highway is probably better then a truck that was beat on and not take care of.
