im looking at a 2002 trooper with 90k miles on it for $11,000. is that a good
deal and is the mileage too high; will it need major repairs soon? im also
trying to sell my 2001 honda civic with 50000 miles on it for $12000. is that
too high an asking price?

1. get a list of all service done last 4 years
2. any parts replaced last 4 years - if yes, which parts? receipts?
3. tire warranty? tires replaced?
4. battery warranty? battery replaced?
5. do a VIN number based search (cost $20-25) which reports everything known about
this car
6. original owner? original papers, sales contract, title (no liens?)

You're going to give up good gas mileage for bad as well. Check out Kelley
Blue Book

for an idea of what the Trooper is worth.
