How many miles on an '04 Sonata 2.4L?

Hey guys, how many miles would you expect a well-maintained 2004 Sonata 2.4L engine to get before major problems crop up?

It all depends how well you maintain it. I've seen blown engines in them before with less than 100k miles in them because the timing belt broke because the owner didn't want to spend the money, and I've seen them last to 200k with proper maintenance.

That IS the bottom line!
