I currently have the newest car I have ever owned and it is 12 years old. I kind of feel called out. 🙂

My current vehicle is a 2007, so…
My 10+ year old car was pressed into service for a 5-hour drive with 4 members of our board. All of us, and our luggage, in a my Ford Escort- literally the cheapest car you could buy new from ford when I bought it.

Hey, it’s not MY fault Saturn went out of business for making good cars and making a lot of other car executives look bad, so that I can’t buy another one. And I’m not letting go of my 1998 Saturn any time soon because it still works so well if they WERE still in business I WOULD plan on buying another one.
