My FIL recently gave my gf and I a 1993 Toyota 4Runner. That thing is 33 years old, as was not given to use in the most optimal condition.
Still use it for commute everyday, spend like only 15liters of gas every week for commuting, still can tow a friend, and it sure as hell still can go to my FIL's farm 1 hour away.
Nah man I ( my father , I am 19 ) have a tata harrier and a 2014 vw vento . I have driven both and a honda city and a verna too and I would choose my vento any day over these two . It just feels great somehow .
Definitely, my first car was a 2015 Volkswagen Passat that my parents found for 10k a few years ago, we payed the same amount in repairs as we did for the car, just to sell it for like 1.5k, and even then that was more than it was worth
I'll never own another German car
True, my Prius has had a check engine light for 5 years, everyone tells me the cracked head is unrepairable and I NEED a new engine (more than the car is worth), reddit told me to use stop head leak (20$ fix), I have to do it again every year, and I have to buy more coolant twice a year, but the car has outlasted its terminal diagnostic by half a decade. I’ll drive that thing until it one day fails, I thought that would be like 4.5 years ago, but here we are, who knows? Maybe it will last another 5 years.
Yep, and if you can survive without a car, even better. You know what's better than a car payment? A trip to Asia, then Europe, then South America, and so on and so forth

Buy and pay off a Toyota.
