just curious ..... how long do you usually keep a vehicle that serves as your daily driver ? what is your oldest current vehicle that serves as a daily driver ? how many miles does it have on it ? how long have you owned it ?

historically we buy a new car, we keep and use it for as long as possible .... our current one is a 2005 Chevy Trailblazer .... we bought it as a dealership demo vehicle in 2005 .... it has 156,000 miles on it .... its still ours and our daughter drives it just under 50 miles a day to and from her work ....we took it to a repair shop this morning to have its AC repaired .... we've spent some money on it over the years with the biggest expense being to replace is transmission a few years ago ....our plan is the same as it has been for almost 20 years .... keep it, fix it when needed and drive it

Mustang Mach E, 8 months old with 1,929 on the odometer...

how do you upload photos

I usually keep my cars about 10 years.

My daily driver is a '99 Blazer with 230,000 + miles. Not sure how long we owned it. I also have a '87 Silverado with a little over 300,000 that gets used quitea bit, bought in '92 with a littleover 65,000. And a '99 Harley Road King with a bit over 50,000 that gets rode a good bit in the warmer weather.
I also have a '72 Vette, but it isn't drove that much and is need of a good restoration.

I’ve driven older high mileage cars most of my life. Now that I’m retired I drive newer vehicles. I currently own a 2017 Subaru Outback Touring with 55K miles and a 2020 Ford Transit Limousine Conversion with 48K miles.

We have a 2010 Titan Pro4x with about 100,000 miles on it and a Frontier Pro4x with about 70,000 miles on the clock. The Frontier is our main daily driver, we haul the heavier feed, building supplies in the Titan. The old 80 Ford Camper's Special F150 had 450,000 on it when we finally sold it cheap to a friend back around 2012 for his high school aged son. The boy still drives it.

2006 Dodge Ram 3500 dually. 104500 miles on it. It pulls our winter house to Texas USA. Its a great truck and I get alot of compliments on it. Love my truck

2008 Mercury Milan, 119K miles, bought new in 2009. So far, so good.

Currently my 2006 Miata with about 60k miles and my 1997 Ranger with around 110k miles. I don't do that much driving anymore so they may be the last vehicles I will ever have. If there comes a time when I can no longer drive the Miata I will probably trade it for a used AWD, probably a Subaru. My Ranger is only driven when there's snow or fresh de-icer on the roads or when I need to haul something that won't fit in the Miata.

2000 Tundra. 122K miles. Last vehicle bought new. Other vehicles are newer, but 2nd hand.
