I don’t believe this list. I’m driving an 18-year old GMC Sierra that I bought new in 2000. It has 260,000 miles on it and has had no major work. I have replaced two sets of brake pads on the front and one set on the back, tuned it up once, replaced one water pump and a window motor. That’s it! I plan to drive it until it won’t go, get it fixed, and drive it some more. It might last the rest of my life though the way it’s going. It still looks like a new truck.

Bet you keep it in a garage?

Our cars and trucks have always been garaged when not used. Same for our machinery. It makes them last a lot longer.

Regular oil changes and proscribed maintenance also.
