That's not the point. What the article is talking about only applies to the difference between vehicles at the bottom of a 10k mile bracket, and vehicles at the top of the same bracket. It's independent of maintenance, and doesn't have anything to do with cars differing by 40k miles.
- ChuckMcM 13y agoI would love the priceonomics guys to do the same survey on RVs. My experience shopping for RVs is that RVs have a price co-efficient that is strongly correlated with "mileage" and poorly correlated with "condition." This was exactly their point on cars when a 79,900 mile car was $210 more expensive than a 80,100 mile car. I read the article to say that people use mileage rather than condition to price cars. So far the closest I've seen on that topic is this entry http://blog.priceonomics.com/post/32944888191/living-in-a-van http://blog.priceonomics.com/post/32944888191/living-in-a-va... which talked about the Westfalia RVs.
