Cars you're most likely to keep for 15 years

I know! They are so cheap, they're really enticing

GTO = 14
Old RGC = 11
STS = 8
Suburban = 6

I see 3 GM and one Chrysler. No toyota's. And at this point the only one that may leave the stable is the Chrysler.

The Suburban is closing in on 20 years old and is a tank. Snow plowing like a beast this past week.

I’ve had 1 gm car for 18 years and it’s rusty! Let’s fight!

I’ve owned my 03 Cobra for over 16 years now. I’m the original owner

The value keeps going up too

Only 9k miles.

9k miles in 16 years, christ. And I thought I didn't drive my cars.

Live look in on an 80's Fox body

My 86 is completely rust free

I do not like Nissan "quality"

Which is a shame, because a 6-speed G35/7 sedan would be cool as hell

Before 1999 they had great quality... 2000-2006 not so much as they were nearly bankrupty. VQ powered g35/g37 are pretty bullet proof with the VQ though. I would buy and drive one no problem as long as it doesn't burn oil.

1990 Maxima with 220k miles no major issues
1989 Maxima with 120k miles (bought it with 50k miles in like 2000)
1993 Villager (Maxima engine) 180k miles All driven hard with stock automatics that were never replaced.

1996 maxima 200k miles.


Early 2000 Mazda's rusted bad, seem better now on my 2012.

should start this thread over and put 15 months on it so i can participate LOL

 

[Ron Vogel]

had 13 years into my GTP. Sold it in still good running condition with 320K on it. Original trans and motor too.

I have a Mustang GT and a Cobra which are both 17 years old. No rust on the Cobra and I fixed a small rust spot on the GT. Both cars are still going strong, no major issues.

I don't get all the Toyota's on that list. Seemingly every Toyota that's more than 8 years old has exhaust leaks and rust.

 

[Yaj Yak]

i dont know how you dont get that there's a bunch of toyotas on the list to be honest.

 

[ragingclue]

Yeah thanks to this stupid list I started looking at old 4Runners again.

I've been telling the wife I need to get a plow for the truck but then I come across something like this on autotrader (comes with the plow), and I told her we should just get this instead:

Dunno why, I've just developed a penchant for the older vehicles that run forever.

 

[Yaj Yak]

yeah get a backup truck & plow, don't destroy your minty truck with a plow.

All these garage queen cars “my 2k mile a year car doesn’t have rust!?!” Fuck Toyota

My 86 is completely rust free
