[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting rid of a car because it cost too much to fix is different than keeping it until it died. [/quote] NP. Our Honda Odyssey didn't die as such (like on the side of the road) but at 207k the mechanic said it wasn't safe to keep driving it. So it wasn't really a case of not wanting to pay to fix it. It was that too many things were in bad condition all at once. I do think plenty of people use "it would cost too much to fix" as an excuse to get a new car sooner than they need to, but I don't feel like that's our case. We would and do keep driving vehicle until they are totaled or unsafe, and we have paid for some very expensive repairs relative to the value of vehicles in the past.[/quote]
