Some people keep their cars for a long time.
People who constantly drive new cars are fucking psychos. Why would you ever get rid of a car just because it's 10 years old?
Because I need the latest and greatest/look good. Also, it's using less fuel/electricity than the previous one, so I'm SaViNg money! /s
Literal reasons I've heard when they had to take up a loan, instead of keeping their 4/5 year old car, which was paid off. I don't understand it.
If they had owned it for a long time it was still cheaper than owning a gas car for the same length of time.
