As for keeping a inexpensive econobox for 20 years?
the rust will get it long before the engine wears out.
Expect to get a new econobox every 10 years.

Not down south. Can keep an econobox rust free for as long as is desired and cared for.

You are right but the op is from Pa.
As for keeping the same car for 20yrs,? i'd get bored with the same old car after about 5-6 years or 200K maybe if the car was a specialty car i could see it but a plain old Yaris?
