well i think the reason you see older cars on the road today is that when they were bought there was less places to go . Now days its no thing to put 100,000 miles on a car within 2-4 years . Avg life span of a car now days is 5years . then its time to trde it in for a new 1 . thats why all the car manufactors come out with new modles every 5-6 years
