My girls grew up thinking a 15 year old car is normal, one came back from college one summer saying” some people have to pay for their car every month....”
So true. That reminds me that both our boys - 5 years apart - drove this 850 to high school soccer practice. After it was already pretty used. The coach one day said to the younger one, "You guys still have that??"

Of course!
