On average, 10 years or so.
Sold a 2007 suburban in 23 that I bought in 09.
I have a Kia that I bought new in 15 that I just put up for sale.

It depends. Anywhere from 4 to 8 years.

I keep them until the wheels fall off (figuratively).
Specifically I replace it when buying a replacement becomes cheaper than keeping the current one running. No reason to take on the major expense before you have to, plus I can't stand all the bells and whistles they put in newer vehicles.

I kept my first Tundra to 200k. Sold it to a coworker and he drove it at least for another 5 years then lost track of him as I had moved on.
Current Tundra is at 245k. Will keep it until it has a major issue. Learned my lesson the first time.
Zero issues with either. Paid cash for both. First one was $19k. Current one, bought used 9 years ago for $16k.

Usually just before the manufacturer’s bumper to bumper portion of the warranty expires…

Until an idiot in an Altima destroys it.
Has happened twice now.

2012 Wrangler, no plans for something new anytime soon. Cost + can’t stand the new tech/screens

BMW: 2001 - 2005 (4 yrs) hated it
Jaguar: 2005 - 2009 (4 yrs) hated it
Toyota Tundra: 2009-2013 (4 yrs) Traded b/c I liked the new body style
Toyota Tundra: 2013 - 2017 (4 yrs) Should have kept this truck longer
Toyota Tundra: 2017-2025 (8 yrs) Some idiot crashed into me - Totaled it
Toyota Tundra: 2025 -
So, for me the average has been a little over 4 years, but truthfully I should have stayed longer in some of these vehicles. I am just a dumb arse and get impatient sometimes

Of course you did. The OT would expect nothing else.

I’ve had mine for 23 years. 270,000 miles. Toyota SUV.
Posted on 2/1/26 at 11:29 am to Hangover Haven
I bought my current vehicle used in 2008.

My dad has had the same truck since 1996

08 HHR that I bought in 12 and should last until I die. She has 115,300 on the odometer. Regularly maintained and still looks like a new one.
I still love that car.

I used to get a new one every 5-6 years. Now I'm a little older and don't really give a shite about vehicles anymore. I'd rather not have a payment. I'm not even starting to think about replacing my 9 yr old truck. I hope it lasts another 9 years.

I bought my 2023 Tacoma with intentions of driving it until I die. I just retired, and the truck just turned 20k miles. I hope it holds up to plan.

Me? Average 10 years.
Wife? Average 5 years.

2015 Suburban ~ 170k miles. Been all over the country and still cheaper to maintain than buying new.
