Diesels require a different way of thinking.

A typical gas powered vehicle is considered to have high mileage at 100k or more than 15k a year.

A typical diesel powered vehicle is considered to have high mileage at 250-300,000.

But, just because it has a lot of miles does not mean its going to need endless repairs. It just means that you may want to replace all your filters. With a gas engine, you have to worry about timing belts, plugs, wires, transmission, and 100's of other things.
