I keep my cars till they either get stolen or the rust finally gets them in the long run.

I also have a tendency to keep cars a long time. I've had a half dozen or more cars that went well over 200K miles. My last vehicle was 280K before it decided to eat it's motor bearings.
The 86 is starting to show some signs of aging. The hood is covered in white speckles where the red paint has chipped, and it definitely makes a lot more groans and moans than it used to. It also needs new struts. Other than that it runs as good as the first day I drove it.
It would have to have a catastrophic failure for me to get rid of it at this point. It has no real value as a trade-in. I am looking to replace it as my daily eventually, and have an order for a Cadillac LYRIQ, but that is slow going. I've been #1 for an allocation at my dealer now for almost 2 months, original order placed in May, 2022!
