John Mayer has the right idea here.A class B motorhome, like this:
Revel Overview | Winnebago RVs
A very far cry from my '71 Chevy Van which went on a dozen Surf'n Safaris up and down the West Coast, camping in Yosemite, Yellowstone, and on Vancouver Island, and Deception Pass in Washington St.

Love the SRT line. My son has a souped up Neon that he runs at the track. I believe he has the 4 cylinder tuned to 360hp.
I think cars often times look even better when they are stripped of their markings.
Thats a sweet ride! I owned a new Jeep Wrangler back in the day. What a fun car to ride around in.
I havent seen many trucks in this thread. Im surprised no one mentioned the Velociraptor yet.
You know what? I still think there is a conspiracy and that they CAN make a car that is pretty much free of breakdowns, but they CHOOSE not to because it would put people and car companies out of business or at least cut down on their profit margin a lot. Imagine if you had a car that lasted for 50 years?
Did you know that is exactly what happened with the original light bulb. Originally, light bulbs lasted a really LONG time, but it was hurting businesses, so the business owners got together and made it so that light bulbs had to replaced every 1000 hours or so. One such original light bulb is STILL burning bright after 150 years!
I have dimmer switches on every light switch or lamp bulb in my home. Each switch cost an average of $12, which adds up to over $200 for all those switches -- but I very rarely, almost never, need to replace the incandescent bulbs I like so much but which are becoming more and more expensive.
/——/ They make cars that last 50 years. I see them at car shows all the time and I’m not talking about restored cars. They are survivors. It’s called maintenance. But most Americans ignore their cars and drive them into the ground. Like airplanes built during WWII that are still flying, your car will last a lifetime if you maintain it. When is the last time you changed your transmission fluid? Flushed out the power steering and brake fluid? Antifreeze?You know what?

Many thanks for the advice but I'm completely baffled by it. I don't know what CTO gels are, or DTB gels, "daylight color temp 5000k type, or 2700 color, or where to buy all that stuff. And does it actually replicate the same effect as ordinary incandescent light bulbs? Because I can't stand the LED bulbs I've tried.
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense.
Modern engines, for example, will now last twice as long as their older ancestors. There are cheap brands that aren't made well but a typical MoPar V6, for example, might rack up 500 thousand miles or more with proper maintenance.
Americans don't want cars that last 50 years, they want a new car every three years because they're obsessed with keeping up with the Joneses but US cars can last eons if cared for.
Ever wonder why cab companies relied on Ford Crown Vics?
I keep hearing the same nonsense year in and year out.
This old girl is still running after 287 thousand miles.
It has NEVER had any major repairs done whatsoever.
The only reason it's being retired is because wifey wants something more luxurious and pretty.
/----/ The only reason they will rot out is because of poor maintenance. If you live near the ocean or in the snow belt where they use salt to melt road ice and snow you need to take your car through a car wash regularly to clean out the salt buildup./——/ They make cars that last 50 years.

Cars they make nowadays will rot out long before 50 years go by. They are DESIGNED to break down after so many years so that you will invest in a new one.
