What do you think are the most reliable/repairable cars? Can be from any era.

I love Toyota and Honda for long term reliability. I am a Nissan tech so its not a brand loyalty thing here. Toyota pickups and corolla are highly sought after on the secondary markets overseas in Asia and Africa because they will go 500k miles routinely.

Holy shit. What years? And thanks.

All years are good.

'Foreigners in Afghanistan have long joked that Afghanistan is where the world’s Corollas come to die. But Afghan’s take issue with that description.

“They come here to die?” asked a puzzled Askar Khan while leading reporters through dozens of parked Corollas in his dealership at the eastern edge of Kabul. “But Corollas never, never die. They drive on forever.”'

Appreciate your expertise, friend! Valuable for me in my hunt for a used pickup.
You can find various reliability stats online. Toyota usually comes up at, or very near, the top.
