I just sold my Accord and it hit me as I was signing over the title, I had the car for 14 years.
What's the longest anyone else has kept a car?
I didn't give it much thought before hand, now I kind of miss it.
I almost backed out of selling it at the last minute because I felt a weird compulsion to drive it another 4000 miles to make it to an even 250,000
Damn reliable car, in all that time the only work I had done besides regular maintenance was
1) Replaced a burned out relay
2) Distributor
3) Charge the AC

The longest has been 4 years, but I sold that to lease my Explorer. After they take it back I'll get a used Explorer.

My first two cars were used and didn't last long. I then went about 10 years without owning a car. One day I added up how much I spent on cab fare and realised I could get a pretty nice car for that money. That was my first Explorer. I loved that thing soooooo much. I traded it in and got a 4 door Explorer (the first was a Sport). There was nothing wrong with the second one except I paid too much for it and missed the old one. Eventually I sold that one and leased my new Explorer XLT with the 3rd row seats. I like it a lot, but I'll be happy when they take it back and I'll buy a low milage trade in of some sort.
