[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current car:  2007 Honda Pilot.  260,000 miles.  It has been a wonderful car.  The AC just stopped working, and it has a few minor quirks (one door can't be unlocked, one window rolls up extremely slowly).  I don't take this car on long trips (over 2 hours); instead, I rent a car.  I travel a lot, so the rentals add up.  My husband's car is fully electric, so that is just for local travel.

My husband does not want to put any more money in to this car(to fix the AC), but I told him that now is not a great time to buy.

What would you suggest?  Just keep chugging along with this car, until the car market improves?  Sell (*where* do I sell a very old car with no AC??) and then buy a new car?   Sell the Pilot and then buy a newer used car?  We are considering a Jeep or another Pilot for the replacement car.  I definitely prefer an SUV - any size.

Thanks for any input![/quote]

Get a price to see how much the ac fix will be. Cars are so expensive and fixing the ac is probably worth it if you keep it for several more months.  You can go to carmax and they will appraise it. There are usually other places around that can do the same (sometimes right outside of carmax).  I would also look at the pathfinder (the newest model that doesn't have the cvt) and toyota.

I've d two pilots and loved them both.  If you do the maintenance, they will last a very long time.   [/quote]
