[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The cheapest car is always the one you already have. Spark plugs? Tires? A check engine light to replace a sensor? All the stuff you just mentioned is minor, typical maintenance on a car that just hit 80K miles. I have a 1999 Subaru with 206K miles that I drive only about 3500 miler per year. I commute via the city bus. I budget about $1K/year in repairs. It's way cheaper than going out and spending $30K on a new Outback.[/quote] It wasn't a sensor that needs to be replaced, the exhaust flex pipe was cracked, which set off a sensor. We commute via Metro and drive roughly 10-15 miles a week just to not let the car sit, plus the several times a year trip to see family, which is 800 miles round trip. [/quote]
