Tahoe, Suburban, Astro. All have been around a while. Suburban has been around since what the 40s.

I love the other Corrolla claim they make: "IT'S THE BEST SELLING CAR OF ALL TIME!" Uh, no, it's not. It's the best selling NAMEPLATE of all time. To suggest that a frequently redesigned and "all new" car is on equal footing with the Model T, VW Beetle and Mini, all of which ran for DECADES unchanged is a bit misleading, don't you think?

my ex gf had a 91 toyota corolla and other then oil changes the only thing they have ever had to replace on it in its 220k miles and still going life was the radiator. I would belive that many corolla's are still on the road. Also my ex gf beat the snot out of it too!
