I saw one at a grocery store in Central maybe a year ago. It was even the 2 toned brown and tan with a big lift. I had one of those trucks in high school (different color) but sadly didn't keep it.

Mine: 2023
Wifey: 2026
Work: 2019, 2020 x2, 2024 (all but the 24 is paid off)
Spending $2500+ a month of work truck gas right now. That's more frustrating that the price of the trucks.

My (small) truck: 5 years old
My wife's crossover: 1.5 years old
Our previous vehicles were both over 10 years old when we replaced them. We are still paying for hers, mine is paid off. Hopefully my truck lasts another 5-8 years. I'll keep it until I'm worried that I'll be stranded in north BR again.

My oldest is 40 years old. Youngest is 19. Have multiple ones in between.
I can repair just about anything on any of them.
Only new car I will ever buy again is a Tesla.

My truck 2014
Wife van 2015
Both around 140K on the clock.
Going to drive the wheels off, fix and drive some more..... i don't want any rolling spyware built to resist DIY service/repairs.

Car 1: 2015 BMW 435i, 153K miles
Car 2: 2006 Honda Civic Si, 219K miles.
There is just no value to having a new car anymore. I can fix both of mine on my own relatively inexpensively.

Until I replaced in earlier this year, my ride was 13 years old.

Unfortunately what the auto manufacturers are going to do is collude to make their cars shittier and break down sooner (normal mechanics already won't frick with them because of all the dumb arse tech in them) so you have no choice but to buy a new one every 10 years.

So you’re telling me that people financing their $75,000 SUV or truck for 72 months isn’t working out for them? Shocked, I am. Who could have seen this coming?

I personally still drive my 2015 Silverado.
Wife still driving her 2019 Traverse.
Daughter has a 2016 Camry with 120K miles on it... Still in great shape.
Son just got his grandmothers 2016 GMC Terrain with less than 15K miles on it...
I'll probably be in the market for a new truck in 2028...

Truck - 2020 with about 110,000 miles
Small SUV - 2025 with 16,000 miles
Fun third car - 2024 with 3,000 miles
Only have a payment on the 2025 because Mazda was offering 0.9% financing. I fear when it's time to replace the truck. My wife mostly drives it because she's a contractor that owns a design / renovation business and usually needs it for projects.

My truck is a 2009. I have a work vehicle provided as well so no real need to upgrade for weekend use only. Wife has a 2024 paid for, and kid has a 2019 paid for. Constant car loans ruin retirement for a lot of people. I knew a couple that had two car loans totaling about $1,500 mo they with a $1,400 house note. They would constantly complain about the house note, and eventually sold to move into a trailer. They never saw the vehicles as a problem.
