If you keep the vehicle twice as long as the loan you should be fine.

I think if you do a little figuring you'll come to realize it's not going to make as much difference as what you might be thinking. No matter how you slice it if you buy an new vehicle today and another new vehicle 10 years from today it's going to cost you fairly similar dollars to buying a new vehicle today ..... trade it in 5 years and then trade again in 10 years.
