I only had 57,313 on my '04 when I sold it in August. Put 18,000 miles on it the first year off the lot but I bought an '02 Grand Cherokee to use as a daily driver in '05. From then on I only averaged 5k a year after that.
My new CTD is going to be my daily driver, at least for 5 years til it's paid off, so I'm sure it'll get some mileage on it...

I have nearly 140,000 mi. on my 2004 "fleet" style (bare bones) 3.7L 5-sp RWD Ram 1500. I hope it will make the 200,000+ mi. club, because I just spent over $400 to upgrade the rear end to limited slip with a new Yukon carrier!
I paid about $13,000 new for my pickup back in '04 for carrying my two dogs (lab mixes) and a light-ish fully self-contained slide-in camper (using Hellwig helper springs). I also often add a light utility trailer to the mix for hunting trips. The camper weighs at least 2000 lbs. when loaded and ready to camp but my little 1500 has handled and endured the load well over many tens of thousands of miles, including many muddy "secondary" road hunting excursions. It's no speed-demon getting down the interstate, but it's always taken me out there and back home. For a low-cost utility vehicle, I can't complain about the repairs I've had to perform on it to date.
