[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A little over 290K miles. Never died, just was traded for another car. Did need some work, and I did consider fixing rather than buying another car. [/quote] As far as regrets, I have contemplated the best time to trade. I have bought used cars that have already depreciated, driven them for years and years, and traded them when they’re high mileage and not worth anything.[b] I have wondered whether it would be better to trade earlier, like maybe between 100-130K miles, when repairs start adding up,[/b] but the car is still worth something. But you’re paying taxes every time you buy a car, so not sure. [/quote] This is what we do. I’m not saying it’s better, but for us it feels like the right balance of being fiscally responsible while still updating the safety features periodically and not being worried about unexpected repairs/being car-less without warning.
