LexisNexis, which generates consumer risk profiles for the insurers, knew about every trip G.M. drivers had taken in their cars, including when they sped, braked too hard or accelerated rapidly.

      On average, people junk cars at about 20 years. A few really do last longer, particularly if they’re not driven daily.

      I think every old Ranger is begging to be put out of it’s misery. Those cars were piles of shit when new, and even bigger piles of shit now that they’re old.
