I would rate its current rustiness as 1/10.
Will not be remotely surprised if I one day roll the odometer over.
To be fair, at the 200,000 mile mark, I did have to do some work: plugs and wires, valve cover gasket, the belts including the timing belt which includes a water pump, idler, and a bunch of other stuff; new exhaust from the cat back, fluids, new rear shocks and a few other things.
On the other hand, I hadn't done any maintenance since 100,000 miles. And it's a tow vehicle for a 5000 lb boat, and it hauls that boat and trailer up saltwater ramps.
And it gets offroaded a bit.
Much older and more primitive than anything you'd be interested in but I'd drive it to Alaska tomorrow if I had the opportunity.
