The reverse midas touch, anything the dems and their RINO libs touch, turns to excrement.

At my age, I am looking at my last vehicle purchase. My current 14yo car will not take me to the end, hopefully which is long in the future. My plan is to buy a ICE without a turbo or CVT trans. Looks like I may end up with a Lexus. Im sure Scottie Kilmer would be happy with that choice.

My 1999 F150 was purchased used in 2003 with 22,000 miles on the odometer. When I left for my 50th high school reunion last Thursday morning, the odometer read 66,000. On return yesterday, 68,000. On last return from San Diego in September 2014, I had 63,000 miles on the odometer. I only added 3,000 miles in 9 years with my "normal" usage. This F150 will probably be my last 4 wheeled vehicle. Winter is about to put my 2 wheeled stock away for the cold season.

My 18(almost 19) year old car is still serving me pretty well. However, I may or may not be able to keep it going economically until I’m too old to drive. By that time it will be hard to say what the choices of another used car(at an affordable price) will be. Tell me what EV would do this, at the price I paid for this one, would be? It is still in good shape with low miles for it’s age. Even at this time, it is hard to find a reasonable replacement for it, should the need arise. I don’t look for that situation to get better.
