In other words, it's a list of cars that consumer reports readers are most likely to keep to 200K, not a list of cars that will go 200K.

Just more rubbish from CR. I would think any car today with proper maintenance will easily go 200K miles, the question is, will the owner(s) be willing to do the mainteance so it will get there? That is what CR should discuss, not their useless biased drivel and opinion.
