Which Automobile brand grows oldest?
There are many different ways to assess which automobile is best.
Well, let us take a different approach. Which cars last the longest as the "Daily Driver?" Being familiar with Mercedes, I notice older 126 & 124 chassis cars in great shape (80's) Which Car Brand last longest as a daily driver? 1 - BMW 2 - Mercedes Benz 3 - Toyota 4 - Honda 5 - GM products 6 - Ford products 7 - Chrysler products Let us define a "daily driver" as a car that is actually driven daily for years and years. Maintenance costs are not considered. Thanks
