re: How many people have gotten 15 years out of a car/truck?

Mom had a '96 Camry that she bought new and traded it in on a 2011 Highlander. I think it had 160K-ish. Her Highlander has about 60K on it she always figured she would go back to a Camry when she stopped carrying grandkids around, but with the price of new ones, she's changed her mind.

My 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee would probably still be kicking if my MIL hadn't let it sit and rot for the past 3 years. It's only got 165K on it, but I'm not sure if I want to put the money in it (4 tires, battery, fluids, wipers, etc) to see if it will still run or not. Last time we started it, it cranked right up with no trouble. Would be a great car for my 16 year old if it was still in decent shape.
