Well, my parents drove a 2001 Chevrolet Lumina that was given to us in ~2006 until it blew a head gasket in 2017 at ~315,000 miles; we've had a 2014 Impala Limited since we bought it in 2015 with a inheritance, and it just rolled over 170,000; and we also have a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis that was given to us last October. It only has ~59,000 miles on it, but it's nearly 7,000 miles and 3 or 4 years overdue for a oil change. The previous owner hit a tree, and the hood is skewed and stuck shut. I drive both of our cars that run, but I wind up driving the Mercury more, so I guess it's my answer if you only want one...

I currently drive a 2014 Mazda CX-5. I’m not gonna lie and say the braking system from time to time gets on my nerves while on the road; but she still has good mileage.

I’m thinking about getting a Camry though.

Who needs to buy a car when you can just sit on the vehicle you built for SO.
