...3 vehicles, each serving a different need (or want):

2000 Toyota Tacoma (68,000 miles). Bought when 5 years old. Our utility vehicle at the Lake for trips to the dump, hauling bulky or dirty stuff, towing boats, etc.

2001 Toyota Highlander (96,000 miles). Bought new. Spouse's primary car, and the one we take when we need a comfortable vehicle that carries a good deal of stuff (ski trips, vacations to FL, etc.).

2004 BMW 330CI drop top (25,000 miles). Bought when 2 years old with 8K miles on it. Obviously, the "fun" car for nice weather. Doesn't hurt that we can nurse it up to 35 mpg (premium, though) on the highway.

All get oil changed frequently. All get waxed twice a year. No plans to replace any of 'em.

We do miss "Helga," though. Our 1991 Toyota Previa minivan. Good for 13 years and 231,585 miles. Great family car when the kids were growing up, and reliable as a rock.
