Hi ya'll, I'm now the proud owner of a used 2005 Scion TC. This came as a graduation gift, and I'm very excited to be part of the family. I've got some questions that might seem pretty self-explanatory, but this is my first car.
My Scion has a little over 200k miles on it, but has been incredibly well maintained by its previous owner. We live in NC and I think it may have only gone so far as Tenessee prior.
I want to know how much life you guys might estimate it to have left in it? I know Toyota engines are quite masochistic, but I plan on traveling from NC to NY at least twice in the coming months once school starts up.
I'm also considering road trips elsewhere in the states.
Any thoughts? Am I making a bad move here?

I have a very abused and mistreated 06 tC with 100k on it and I did a 1500 mile road trip in it with no issues. Just keep tabs on the oil level, the 2AZ engines are known to burn oil like a pyromaniac blows stuff up lmao
