I don't believe we have ever had a vehicle that we kept for less than 5 years, and many for at least 10 years, new or used. My biggest concern is that replacement parts will just become completely unavailable, unless I want to dig through a junk yard to "pick and pull".

Never much felt the pull of getting a new vehicle just to have a new vehicle. We need a good reason to move onto a "new" vehicle.

Heck, I think I need to buy new tires for the vettes, not because they are getting worn out, but because they are getting so old that the rubber is probably getting hard and brittle.
