Any automotive needs will be supplied by Ford( maybe ) and Japanese, German automaker.

Besides, there is no reason that modern cars shouldn’t last 30 years. I think nothing of a ten year old car. Twenty is even fine. This should be good for auto parts stores, rebuild companies and small mechanics shops.

I checked out old Cadillac style Jeep Wagoneers. There are a couple of outfits that totally rebuild them. Very very nice and less money than a stripped CJ.

Yep, I’ve seriously considered a “classic” Camaro or something for my “new” car. My wife dislikes the idea cause we have snow. Ugh.

Sounds like Cuba to me.

As a former Wagoneer owner, I can tell you that that’s a horrible idea - especially as Chrysler ended “normal” SJ Wagoneer parts support a couple of years back and is simply selling through inventory now with no intent to make more parts.
