I had the opportunity several weeks back to drive an old Hyundai Excel – this thing had to be like 100 years old and had about 4 zillion miles on it. I don’t know anyone that owns a new Hyundai, I think they come off the assembly line with 100,000 miles on them. I am just impressed that these cars last so damn long. I was immediately reminded of my roommate’s Hyundai that he had in college our Junior and Senior years… for the amount of use it got, it was certainly the best bang for the buck out there!

I think everyone should own one of these at least once in their lives or live with someone who does.
