RM>> Mine is just a 2017 too. My previous car was a 2006 so it didn't have
  >> any of the modern goodies.

MP>My other "car" is a 1993 Dodge Dakota.  It is nice to drive in part because
  >it has no "modern goodies" to speak of.  The radio doesn't even work.  :D

Until recently I was usually buying cars just rebuilt that were older
and I'd only keep them for 3 or 4 years. As long as a car looks and
runs okay I don't worry too much how new it is. These days it's a lot
harder to tell how old a car in in any case. Not like things were back
in the 50's and 60's..   B)

A local Wreckers had a thing for Neons and were always fixing those
up to sell. I bought two Neons from them. They had better than
average warranties on them and, if the car needed work after the
warranty period, they often did it ridiculously cheap. If it wasn't
complex work, only charging me not much more than minimum wage rates
since their apprentice could do it and that's all he was being paid..
