Miles and registrations are counted separately, so a state where many vehicles are registered but driven elsewhere, or the reverse, can land at either end. Treat the top of this list as a state average, not a forecast for your car.
What the six-figure mark changes, on the factory side and the contract side: 100,000 miles.
Confirm against your VIN. The factory clock starts at first sale, not at the model year. Terms vary by model year, trim and market.
