90,000 miles on a newer vehicle

I've been looking around at used cars as of late. I found a lot of later model vehicles with upwards of 90,000-120,000 on them. I know people say todays cars last a lot longer than they use to but wow. I just traded in a 97 explorer that was just turning over 90,000 but it was 10 years older than some of the stuff I've seen on the lot with the same miles and still priced too high. what do you all think about high miles on newer vehicles?

Not that big of a deal anymore with the distances a lot of people travel daily. You can rack up a lot of miles but not have many hours on the vehicle. My uncle is a perfect example with his work he travels to the other end of the state regularly and can easily put 3000-4000 miles a month on his car. I do his service work and instead of changing the oil in that range I do it in the 7000-8000 range. I do that because when I did it at 3-4000 the oil still looked new from not having been run that long.
