so we keep our vehicles forever

Had a 2005 Ford Escape that I kept until 2018. Had about 140k miles when I traded it in

Currently have a 2013 Hyunda Santa Fe with about 110k miles, but 75% of that came in the first 5 years of ownership. Wife works from home now and it gets like 5k miles per year

Currently have a 2017 Nissan Murano with about 60k miles on it
