You need a special concrete

Concrete cracks so that's something you have to live with. Like granite, if you set a wine glass down the wrong way it will break it, get used to replacing china and glassware or use plastic dishes. Concrete is porous so you have to wax it or it will stain. If you have a prissy wife with an obsessive cleaning fetish it's great. If you have kids who cut stuff without a cutting board or don't clean-up after themselves forget it.
Look at your lifestyle and be honest about it before you buy.
My trade is cabinetmaking (although I messed with cars for a while), I owned a shop for a long time and I have two kids.
What do I have? Plastic laminate.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
