You don't ever own an electric vehicle

I drove a mid '90s Toyota Camry for close to 250k miles with routine maintenance (and a door handle replacement because their design was pretty bad). At that point, it needed around $1k in fixes and it would likely have been good for many more miles if I'd have been interested. I've seen more than a few 80s models with twice that mileage.

Reliable cars don't necessarily have to be entirely electronic.

My uncle had a 1993 Honda Accord that had 400,000 miles on it before finally died.

4-cylinder American cars in the 80s were junk and did not last long at all.
