highway miles on a car are nothing; people get caught up with mileage rather than type of driving, which is much more important. in new orleans, the roads are (were) so bad that aaa estimated drivers paid an estimated $500-1000/year in extra maintenance, though i (and most people in the area) put less than 10k miles/yr on their cars. tranny, engine, brakes, suspension don't get much work on the highway. steady speeds rather than stop/go are much easier on everything, including cv joints, bearings, etc. even belts/hoses are more affected by time rather than mileage. i'd do the maintenance and not worry about miles, especially since the car will depreciate a lot short term with a lot of miles on it.
