I've stuck with my early model FJ Cruiser. It has such a unique, rugged aesthetic and I'm still upset that they discontinued it. I dread the day that I have to replace it and probably deal with a lack of an all-tactile interface. It seems like every car nowadays has some form of touch interface and/or endless menus for basic functionality. Every time I use my partner's car, I'm reminded of how good it feels not have to take my eyes off the road just to play some music or adjust the AC in my vehicle. I think what I'd miss the most, surprisingly, is the little glovebox-like compartment on the top of the dashboard right above the steering wheel that I use to hold my phone for GPS. My only complaints are the horrendous fuel efficiency and the windshield, which is prone to nicks due to its almost straight vertical position and is comparatively expensive to replace due to its abnormal size and the steps to remove/install it being rather involved. Beyond getting that windshield replaced twice, I haven't had to do anything besides general oil, tire, and light changes. It's seen better days with some paint chipping, but with more than 200,000 miles over 15 years, it's still going strong. I'm hopeful that I'll get to stick with it for the foreseeable future.
