A used Toyota with about 100k miles will cost half of a new car and still last as many additional miles or more than, a new car from another brand. There is a lot more value in a used car that is still in great shape.
Toyota hands down, If you want something that lasts forever. Honda is my second favorite. Japanese make great cars as an art (nstead of planned failure at 100-200k miles, like US car companies. I have a 4runner with 480k miles with no leaks, cold ac, no engine light.
Wow, didn't expect such unanimous agreement, but out of all the brands I've owned, which includes Toyota, Nissan, Honda, BMW, Lexus, and Tesla... I like Toyota the best for value + reliability
