Today I drive a Chevy Uplander 2006, bought it with 16k on it, now it has 104K miles, and is still going. Did have a lot of bugs that had to be worked out at first, but now is running fine. Had problems with gas gauge, (float in the tank), ABS light, and the transmission which were taken care of under warranty. Had to replace and repair (at my own expense), front wheel bearings, tie rod ends, struts, stabilizer bars, EGR system, and of course tires and brakes. However I don't think that's too bad considering I mostly do in city driving for the number of miles.
Previous cars I have owned
First car 1963 Dodge 330
Ford Torino wagon 1972
Pontiac Astro, 1976, only kept it 4 months (big piece of junk)
Chevy Chevette 1976
Ford full size van 1976
Chevy Malibu wagon 1980
Olds Cutlass Cerra wagon 1988
Buick Estate Wagon, 1992
Dodge Caravan 1994
Ford Escort 2002 (which my son totaled driving on ice)
Ford Taurus 2004
All my vehicles I have bought used except the 1980 Chevy Malibu wagon which at that time was only $7500. Now you can't even buy a decent used car for that!
