[quote=Anonymous]hey, i get everything that you're saying. i really do. one caveat to remember: back in the old days, you could save a lot of money by only buying used cars. there was that whole "the moment you drive it off the lot..." thing, and it was largely true. a big difference today is that used cars don't depreciate more than linearly. at all. at least not the reliable ones. the German luxury ones, sure, but you're going to pay through the nose when those go out of warranty. But a good Camry or RAV4 or something, what I mean is that if you can reasonably expect 250k miles out of it, then a RAV4 with 125k miles will sell used for about half of what it sold for new. That's not really saving anything. [/quote]
