How Old is your car in people years?

Example: a 1994 Chevrolet Cavalier with 131,824 miles on it. Do the math:

131824/1994 = 66.1.

That car would be a 66 year old person.

Not sure how that calculation makes sense, but I've got a 2007 Colorado with 37000 miles so it's 18.43 and a 2001 Silhouette with 160000 which would be almost 80.

167,000/2001 = 83.4

I have a 1957 VW beetle that came to me with several coats of paint and literally unknown mileage. So it would probably win if it could speak? But without actual mileage verification... :roll:

2002 Toyota Corolla, 71,290 miles, 35.6 years old.

But it had 59,400 miles when I bought it in 2004. So it's "aged" only 5 people years in the 5 years I've had it, in contrast to the 30.6 years it aged in its first two years. At this rate, I had better take out a life insurance policy so that the Toyota will have money for living expenses after I die.

Oh, Wow!
