Last one was a 2004 Sunfire. Bought the wife an Acura so I took over her Accord as a DD. Sunfire was so rusted out with half the miles of the current Honda, I drove it onto the weigh scales, got out and went to collect $384 |

The 04 Ranger is still going strong and in fact the A/C in the truck (still factory everything including freon charge) cools instantly after startup even on 100 degree days like today. The 2019 Mustang needs about 5 minutes before shit cools down at all!

I keep cars for two years and then get bored. I do a 24 month lease and move on.

The only logical step to reverse that trend is to build less reliable vehicles. I bet it is in the works as we speak.

My IS-F is 10 years old. I'm in no rush to replace it. And it's nice not having a car payment.

I'm looking forward to the new loan on my $90,000 C8. At least I'll be shortening the average.
Got 2.5 years left on the wife's Scoobie Doo Outback, other than that, all other cars are paid for. |

My "newest" car is 5 years old. I NEVER buy "new" cars anymore. Not worth it.
