It all depends on the way the vehicle was maintained and the kind of driving. City driving, starting the engine every couple miles and never letting it completely warm up will be very hard on an engine and it might be through in 50,000 miles, but not likley. Highway miles, where you go 500 or 600 miles consistently before you shut it off, and change the oil and perform other necessary maintenance regularly, a vehicle like that can go for several hundred thousand miles.
