[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why do you have to replace the minivan? Does it need major repairs? If not, I would just drive it until it dies and save more money so you can spend more than 10k and get a van that will a) last you longer than 4 years and b) will be easier to get what you want.  It’s costlier in the long run to do it the way you’ve been doing.  Get something newer and it will last you much longer.

It will need another timing belt soon and some other things. I always thought used cars were supposed to be cheaper per mile, but it doesn't seem to be working out that way. Maybe because we bought too old instead of just a few years old. This was the first used vehicle we've bought. The car we bought new before the van ended up with over 200k on on it also.[/quote]

The other reason is if we keep driving it, one day it will suddenly go from worth a few thousand to worth $0/paying someone to tow take it away if it breaks down because we're not going to fix it at that point.[/quote]
