The problem is, the kind of person who cares about those things, as valid as they are, buys 0-1 cars per 20 years, and the market is driven (ha ha) by people who buy 2-3 cars every 2 years.
replyVery true. This truck appeals to me very much. My wife and I have a 2010 Accord and a 2014 CR-V. We could afford newer and/or fancier cars, but we just don't care about those things.
replyWe're thinking of buying a newer car at some point, but between interest rates and, now, tariffs, we're not in any hurry.
Hah. Fair point. I'm around 210k miles and aiming to squeeze as many more out of it as I can.
replyVibe solidarity! I have a 2009 with manual everything - even the old crank windows and manual door locks. This truck seems right up my alley.
replyHell yeah Pontiac Vibe! My 2008 is at 308k! I’ll drive into the ground
replyMy 30-year-old daughter is still driving the Toyota version, the Matrix, also 2008, that we bought in about 2013. She loves the thing. If she didn't have it, I'm sure I would still be driving it.
replyI find it hilarious that it's a limited-edition M Theory model. It has a badge glued to the dash that says "1926 of 5000." For a Toyota econobox.
Niice, giving me hope! My '06 is showing its age, but I hope it's got another 100k in her!
