[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m always surprised at these people who see keeping a car a long time as a weird badge of honor. I’d love to have it analyzed. [/quote]

Insecurity. DMV is full of big egos and moderate incomes. DMV is also full of similarly educated people who chose to go into business and now make 5-10x the income of the first group.

So the first group claims to be "old money" (read no money) who [b]could[/b] afford a nice car but "choose" not to. As per some books written by similar big ego/middle income intellectuals. [/quote]

you hit the nail on the head[/quote]

Disagree. I think you're overthinking it. There are a lot of us who just don't put a lot of value on having an updated car. There are some who would rather spend money elsewhere, like the house or nice vacations or school tuition. There are some who just treat it like a sport to see how many miles they can get out of a car. There are some who loathe car shopping and the whole experience. There are a lot of reasons. [/quote]

Not really. There are people who have new luxury cars, large houses in prestigious neighborhoods, vacation internationally every year and send their children to brand name privates. [/quote]
