both my cars are 20+ years old and keeping them alive feels more rewarding than paying a finance company. also most stuff made in the last 10-15 years does not excite me. too complicated.
There's definitely something rewarding about keeping the crappy, ugly thing going and working her till death but I'm so busy and try to do road trips that it's starting to tick me off how it's always when I am trying to do something it breaks.
