My Saturn is over ten years old and still going strong. With 185k miles, it is still running strong with only regular wear and tear repairs completed so far. The leather interior is still in great shape with regular cleaning and conditioning. The style is still very modern, and it doesn't show its age. The V6 engine makes it very powerful, and the AWD made handling in snow and ice no problem with all-season tires. The factory upgraded stereo still sounds great with no repairs necessary. The car is very comfortable and has made many trips across the country. The back seats fold down flat which also makes it a fun car to camp in if you don't sleep in tents. Also, a queen-size air mattress fits perfectly in the back!

My van is not 8 years old. I have only had to replace a few things on the vehicle in that time. The alternator, fan, and a water pump. The van has ran great and gets me where I need to go without fail. Having the van has allowed me to haul things like a truck or people if needed. If I have people I keep the seats in the van however if I need to room for a large box or small piece of furniture like a coffee table, all I have to do is take a few seats out and I am golden. There are 4 removable seats in the van. Taking out all four gives me a space of about 6 feet by 5 feet. I also have a roof rack on top so I can move mattresses or whatever else I need to tie down to the top. The van gives my comfort on long trips as well. I have taken it on vacations and on those long road trips I do not get cramped or exhausted from sitting for too long. The van also has a dual comfort zone climate control where I can have my side of the car a certain temperature and the passenger can have their zone warmer or colder depending on what they want. I love this van and if or when I need a new car again I will likely buy the same kind of van. The only downside I have on this van is the fact it isn't a sports car and I do not exactly look cool to the women, :)
