every couple of years.

Well, that's one way to insure they stay in business, as as Barnum, the carnival owner once said, "There's one born every minute." (A fool that will buy tickets to my carnival.)

I really don't know how GOOD companies stay in business. I had a General Electric uwave oven that lasted from 1976-2006. Of course I bought another last month when the old one went out. But the folks that built that original oven are probably dead and gone so it did them no good that I was a repeat customer.

Point to ponder? Not really. ;-)

I guess it's a case of built in obsolesence.

But the people I know who've lived in Japan say that it is strongly encouraged for people to recycle their cars every couple of years, perhaps they need the metal.

My Merc ('98 C230) has 109,000. I agree on both counts!! ;-)
