Re: how long do you keep your vehicles?
If its breaking down on me, 3 years. If its holding together well 8-10 years. I'm closing in on 4 years on my current DD, and I see it going another 2, mainly because I dont need a SUV any longer because I dont tow motorcycles. At 26-28mpg, Im not really getting any benefit of the SUV ability. Im looking at getting that next Ford Fusion Hybrid which gets mid 40s.

Re: how long do you keep your vehicles?
I still have my 2007 BMW Alpina B7, a 2007 Gallardo "Nera" edition (death trap) and a 2010 BWM X5...
Since I don't lease or finance my vehicles, I don't see the point in replacing them every so often if they run 100% fine.
If you lease you car, I do get the point of trading it in for a newer ride, but you will never "own" anything...

Re: how long do you keep your vehicles?
