Yeah, as we get older, taking care of ourselves becomes more of an imperative. You can drive a car with 10,000 miles pretty aggressively, skip maintenance, etc. and it'll probably still drive great.

Doing the same with a car at 80,000 miles is outright dangerous. But if taken care of properly, older cars can drive just as great as newer ones, and sometimes a well-maintained older car can drive even better than a neglected newer car.
