What old cars are you frugal people nursing through life? šŸš— Auto

I remember the older generations would buy a car and drive it for two or three decades. Today it is pretty popular to replace a vehicle regularly. What are some old vehicles you all are still driving. Iā€™m stuck in the early 2000s, because they are new enough to have some features, yet, mostly simple to service.

2007 Toyota Camry, 225k miles. Still going strong! Maintenance and new tires every few years on a paid off car sure beats anything new with a monthly payment.

That's cool. Did you buy it new or used?
