Garage
My 1998 Toyota Landcruiser was 14 years old and 230,000 miles when traded in; ran like new, nothing rattled, nothing shaked, burned no oil, leaked no oil, all electrical was functioning; my Audi A4 is 13 years old 126,000 miles runs like the first day I bough it from the dealer new; interior is like new, all systems are a go; my P car though 17 years old has only 38,000 miles but runs like a Porche should.

I would buy Toyota, Lexus, Audi, or Porche again and they would probably be my last vehicles ever needed heading into my senior years

Reliable

I agree with Woody.

A friend with a BMW asked me about the reliability of my 986S.
I said. "I'll tell you in ten years".

I drove a Jeep CJ5 for 24 years. I remember changing out a fuel pump, 2 starters, and alternator over that time period. Each item cost less than $40.00 and took less than a half hour to change. I can't say that anymore.
