I have only ever bought used. Pay cash, drive it til it dies.

Same here. I typically buy myself a 3 year old vehicle with under 36,000 miles on it and drive it for 10 years. Pay cash for it, let some other chucklehead take the big hit on depreciation for the first three years.

Wish I had that luxury. In my job, I'm expected to maintain a current model car so I'm constantly trading in my perfectly good car for a new one. But the company gives me a monthly stipend that makes my car payment and then some so I can't complain too much.

Would love to just drive a car into the ground though. Maybe when I retire.

I refuse to pay more for a car than my house cost.

Me too, bought a used 2003 Honda Accord in 2005, and it's still going strong today.
