Starting car shopping soon- what is a car that will last me a long time that is reliable?
I bought myself a 2011 honda civic back in 2019, for around 8k- and it had 87k miles, and it has been so good to me. Now its at 220,000 miles and I have been looking for my next vehicle.
I love Toyotas, hondas, mazdas, and Infinitis. But, I have been reading Toyota and honda is best. I love sedans, but... my family is pushing for me to get something that ain't a sedan with more protection if that makes sense, and, I kinda agree unfortunately. My budget is more in 20-23k range, mileage preferably around 30-50k (that can flex- im spewing numbers out my ass, will edit later if needed once I look at KBB). And.. decent gas mileage is great. I drive an prob 2 hours and some change 5 days a week to work.
Any suggestions?
Also, does anyone have any thoughts on hybrids and their reliability? How long do they last- I have heard they have expensive parts that once they go out its better to replace whole thing- is that true?
Thank you!
