320K Km on my 06 Honda Accord.
I've been trying to convince myself to get something new but can't for the life of me justify it.
-Still drives great
-Manual
-Hydraulic steering so great handling/road feel
-No bullshit touchscreens or unnecessary electronics
-No payments
-Reliable, spend nothing to very little on repairs
-leave it unlocked most of the time, no worries of it getting stolen
-has its fair share of bumps and bruises so I don't give a shit if someone rams their shopping cart into it
-Cheap insurance
-cheap on gas and no range anxiety of electrics- im still rolling in my '00 dodge ram but am finally looking for a new ride since living on the beach rusted the shit out of my truck, been eyeing jeepsYakuZoku
- Yeah I figure I’ll drive it until it dies...but it just keeps going lol_niko
- keep it, if you get a new one, you'll see the expenses pilling up (insurance, service)dmay
- my wife was on me to get a new car, so i took mine over to our mechanic for a check-up so to speak... he drives a toyota as well, like me...exador1
- he gave it the once over, noted the odometer was at 250k, and just laughed at me and said 'congrats, you've made it to the half-way point' lol...exador1
- my toyota corolla is 17 years old at this point, and it's at the 'half-way' point...
lol... these things fucking go forever.exador1 - my dad bought a new corolla just before he passed away at the begining of the summer, so my mom has given it to me...so ... i DID end up getting a new car..exador1
- just not the way I ever imagined i would.
the 17yr old corolla will be for my kids to use.exador1 - haha awesome. The more I look at new cars the sicker I get. I don't need lane assist, I don't need blind spot indicators, I sure as hell don't need auto park_niko
- buy used! or from the classifieds!doesnotexist
