    I drive similarly old vehicles (my oldest is 33; my newest is 18). The other reasons for it are:

    • I avoid the exploitative misfeatures of new cars, such as privacy-violating “telemetry” and property-rights-violating “subscription features”

    • I get features that are hard or even impossible to find these days, such as manual transmissions even on my SUV and pickup truck.
