EVs Could Last Nearly Forever—If Car Companies Let Them

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
For washing machines, buy used Speed Queen commercial units.
They cost as much as new consumer high end units, but they're designed to be repaired, plenty of parts available, and they don't break in the first place.
The Speed Queen small washers at my local laundromat are about $2500 on the used market (in good running condition, with known hours on them). They're quiet, and don't shake for any reason.
