Trucks & SUVs Dominate Longevity

�  The  vehicles  that  came  out  on  top  of  iSeeCars.com’s  study  were  all  pickup  trucks  and  SUVs,  with  the  Ford  F-­‐250  hitting  number  one  on  the  list.  

American Vehicles Are Long-Lasting

� A  majority  of  the  top  10  longest-­‐lasting  vehicles  were  American.  8  of  the  top  10  were  by  American  automakers.    

ere Are No Cars in the Top 10

�  The  first  car  to  make  the  list  of  longest-­‐lasting  vehicles  is  the  Honda  Accord,  coming  in  at  #11.  

Why are So Many Trucks & SUVs Long-lasting?

�  Some  trucks  are  used  as  work  trucks  and  are  perhaps  better  maintained.  

�  Knowing  workers  depend  on  trucks  to  last  –  and  use  them  longer  than  cars,  manufacturers  are  building  trucks  to  go  the  distance.  

�  SUVs  could  hit  high  miles  as  they  may  be  the  vehicles  of  choice  for  parents  and  used  more  frequently  than  sedans.
