Yes, how you take car of stuff makes a huge difference.
Here is someone that I know nothing about that just put a million miles on an old Saturn s series.

I changed the oil on my sons Saturn over the weekend. He has put on over 20K miles on the rebuilt motor.
The other day we did replace the passenger window motor it stopped working. I had a replacement on the shelf just waiting to go in. Now both window motors are new. He drives his car everyday. Our friends have a daughter same age as my son. She just totaled her car everyone was ok. The car was given to her and she really wanted a different car. I am glad we went with the Sweat Equity route and he takes care of his car.

Short update.
A couple years later his OEM radiator went bad. I took his very nice all aluminum radiator off the shelf and installed it. ( I ordered another all aluminum radiator for my other son's 99 SC2 just incase.) He has now put 35,790 miles on his motor rebuild. I just ordered a windows regulator for the passenger door. The driver’s door had a new motor but has quit working. I need to determine if it was the switch or something else. Other than that, it has been working well for him. Gas Mileage has even gotten better.
