Not a direct answer, but if you ever get a chance - go walk around a self-serve junkyard. This is where cars go when they finally just aren't worth fixing anymore. It is eye opening. There are cars that you will still consider 'new' that have already given up the ghost (mainly Dodge/Chrysler, Hyundai/Kia, & Nissan). And you can't help but think - WTF are these cars doing here, aren't these still for sale at the dealership?

Conversely, there are also cars there so old you hardly recognize them (usually Honda, Toyota, and full size pickups from Ford/GM).
