I have a Lexus ES, and I’ll drive that for probably 15 years.
I’ll do it for my retirement vehicle(s) when that time comes.
Another reason to stay with ICE-y vehicles; EV won’t give us the chance to go long without factoring in costly battery changes.

I have a 2017 that I hope to drive another 5-6 years. They can keep all of these trucks and SUVs for what they cost now.

the flip side is with over the air updates done to EV cars (like Tesla) makes the car “improve” over time of ownership so new features aren’t tied to new model years…so putting a new battery in (which 8-10 years down the line will be even better than the battery you bought your car with) will be worth it

Paid off 2007 (300k miles) and 2015 (150k). Both are Hondas and just getting broke in.

That's basically a Camry. No problem running it that long if you dont' drive much, keep it under 250k miles. A Dodge Challenger would be a different story.
