My family now has 5 vehicles... the newest is the one I just got for myself... a 2011 Expedition. The price was right and I hope to have it for 10 years.
I currently operate four vehicles. I had five but my oldest son got married a couple years ago and I signed over my 2001 Mercury Mountaineer to him. It’s approaching 200K miles and starting to show some rust issues and it’s losing oil, though we can’t figure out why. It’s not burning oil and no leaks.
My wife has a 13 Nissan Murano SV with 165K miles on it, it’s her work car, she drives 30 minutes each way and she hopes to get another 125K out of it, although the AC compressor crapped out at 75K miles, $600 to replace.
My daughter is driving an 08 Toyota Highlander Limited with 150K miles on it and it drives like a dream for it’s age. She will graduate college in a couple of years and then it’s going in her name.
I had been driving a 06 Mercury Grand Marquis GS with leather seats and it’s ran like a champ, just turning over 100K miles, but I was having issues getting in and out of it so I gave it to my 16 yr. old son when he got his license and bought me a 15 Nissan crew cab 4X4 frontier SV with 35K miles on it. I figure I will drive it at least 12-15 yrs. or more. I like to get at least a dozen years out of a vehicle.
