This is only possible in states with dry weather. Try having a nice, reliable 23-year-old car in the Rust Belt. Salt Belt.

I'm in Minnesota, I've had cars well over twenty years old. They weren't nice but they were reliable that's why they're twenty years old instead of breaking down at five or ten

I'm in Canada, so similar weather. My first car was an 06 Honda Accord that died in 2024 from engine failure at 300k.
