I have 95k on my 97 and it is a very reliable car. I would not hesitate to jump in it and drive to Alaska!
I average about 26 between highway and city. I have the 3.15 so not sure if that affects mileage or not. I usually get around 30 or so on the highway but I don't drive it hard.

I think if you find a car that was well cared for you should be okay. Look for a car with only a few owners who took good care of the car.
