My 1989 Porsche had 180 000 on it when I sold it a couple of years ago and drove like new, maybe better because of some upgrade parts. Some of this year's electrics (I think Tesla and maybe Nissan) have mostly aluminium in the body, ie lots less to rust. With the simplicity of electric setups, my money would be on them lasting longest. If you replace everything as you go however, you have an old car with old safety tech. My Porsche was great but tended to burn to the ground because of fuel line placement, and had no airbags let alone pre-crash tech or crumple zones to cope with the normal massive SUVs out there. So, not sure if one would actually want a BIFL car.

"Ah, a man of culture, i see" must be your line every time you see the clothesline and him together.
Which is a fair statement, as hanging your laundry in the courtyard, the palazzo, the ancient ruins, is something humans have been doing since the agricultural revolution at least, ie when our non- nomadic culture developed and changed radically.

Also, line dry your sheets whenever possible. Much less wear and tear on sheets and better smells after drying.

I don't disagree - I follow Mariana Mazzucato's point, that most American innovation is government invented or funded - but that has essentially nothing to do with my point here. Batteries are replaceable and will be routinely replaced and recycled, like any consumable.
