My 11year old Honda Element has 66,000 miles on it and I've done all the required services plus some. How long will it last?

As long as you continue to fully and properly service and maintain your Honda it has another 200k miles, or more, to go.
TBh and this is coming from someone who used to work for a dealership, and also took automotive classes in college, it does not matter how good you take care of the vehicle it can have a part go bad without warning just cause!
2-300k more if you keep up all the maintenance
No one can predict its date of death. The little Honda box will stand a better chance of hanging around longer with the good care you've given it, but neither "three more years" nor "150,000 miles," nor anything else, is at all guaranteed.
Considering you only average some 6K miles annually, it isn't so much how many more miles the vehicle will accumulate but perhaps the question is how long will the body/chassis last. This is an especially important consideration if you live in a snowy region or close to a sea or ocean ( salt air ).
What will kill you Honda will not the mileage. What will kill the car is plastic parts getting dry, hard, and brittle.
The weakest link on them in the automatic tranny. A/C compressor the second weakest. The headlights are a nusence too.
That's like asking if I eat right how many years until I die jojo.
Who knows? It could die tomorrow. Impossible to tell.
Most likely it will last right up until the day it dies.
- Vehicle I drive is a 2007 Honda Element that just turned 64,000 miles. I'm rigorous about keeping up on maintaining it People constantly approach me and ask if I want to sell it because the body and interior are in great condition as are all the internal workings and suspension. Even though Honda does not require synthetic motor oil I use Valvoline full synthetic and change it every 4,000 miles with a new factory filter. My question is how long will my engine last?
- Would you purchase a 2004 Honda pilot for $6,000.000 that has 216,000 miles on it? I'm just browsing online looking at cars for sale and a lot of them have 200k or more miles on them and they want $4,000 or more. Why do people sale their cars for such a high price with a lot of miles on them? Its not just Hondas its all types of cars private and dealers as well
- My 2007 Honda Element has a mint body and interior and under 64,000 miles but due to its age it needs about 4k in work, here is the list New tires, front struts with dust boots and bump stops, rear shocks, alignment, water pump, universal belt, front lower ball joints, outer tie rod ends, timing side engine mount, rear brakes, flush and bleed the system and emergency brake adjustment. Should I do the work and keep it due to low miles and good eyeball condition?
- How long will a car with 56k miles last me? My 2012 Honda has 56k miles and I've had it since it was at 19k. If I keep up with the maintenance and drive anywhere from 12-15k a year how long could it last?
