Poll: How old is your car?
- Thread starter The Tradition
- Start date
I don’t know lots of things that aren’t important to me. It’s a tool that moves me back and forth to work. I bought it 4-6? years ago..I think? Could be longer, who knows. Time flies as you get older.
Mine is a 2018 Nissan Rogue. 3boysdad drives a 2012 Chevy. He wants a new truck. He has to wait until my car is paid off probably 2 years. I bought it a year ago.
A little maintenance every spring beats the hell out of a car payment.
We pay cash for entry luxury brands that are 3-5 years old with low mileage.
I currently drive an 05 TL with 138K and my wife drives a 13 TL with 48K.
When my car hits 200K I'll buy another.

I want one more new truck before I retire, I'm waiting to see what the electrics do before I buy a new one. I might consider that route.
Wife (no pic) has a '15 Equinox and I've got a '16 Silverado. Mine is paid for, she's got about two years of payments left. Will probably drive both until they die.
2013. Never bought a new car in my life. 1 year old program vehicles and drive them till it no longer makes economic sense (usually 150-175K miles). Save the money by not making payments and usually (but not always) plop down cash to buy the next one.
Vehicles are transportation...nothing more.

Paying cash, regardless of what you drive, is the only way to go. The rest of y’all are suckers.
I agree. Unless it's part of your business operations, it just doesn't make sense to borrow money for a depreciating asset.
Good strategy and agree that a car is just transportation. Btw, there’s still plenty of 0% financing opportunities.
The only way to go? Strongly disagree. It depends on the buyer’s situation.
My daily driver is an '04 and my occasional use pickup is an '03,.. I keep my vehicles in pristine condition but their age is of no concern to me...
2017 silverado that I'm not trading in since the new body style is horrific..
02 Camry is my daily driver and should be hitting 300k here in the next month. Bought it new. Still running strong and body's in great shape. I driving it until it dies or me, whatever comes first.
I think you can get arrested for this...
@hawkbirch Is this correct?
no. Conflicts prevent me from doing pro bono work so I donate to the Volunteer Lawyers Project instead.
Mine is a 2015 Accord. Wife’s is a 2012 Traverse. With a big sales year, she is going to push for an upgrade.
Ah, the rust bucket years of the Ram pickups. I had an '04, gave it to my son a couple years ago when I bought a new truck. Hell, he should be happy, at least 75% of the body is still there...
2017 fully loaded Chrysler Pacifica. Bought it new when it only had like 100 miles on it.
