Only did oil change, tire and brake replacement on these 3 cars, not even brake fluid change, service, let alone transmission fluid, coolant change and other wear and tear items like alternator, fuel pump. Both the malibu and 328i made it to 150k without any issues, and the accord made it to 200k. Luck may had played a part but for modern cars, you don't have to do a lot of maintenance unless you want the cars to last more than 10 years and more than 150k.

Also depends on driving style, if you drive aggressively and treat the gas pedal like like on/off switch at every stoplight, engine and other associated components gonna wear out faster.

Tesla requires almost no maintenance and brake replacement. And definitely no regular oil change. No luck needed!
