[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]700 to have puppy spayed and $4k for timing belt and major service for Honda Pilot - rats![/quote] Sorry to get off topic but this is why I don't understand why people buy cars. Why sink money into a depreciating asset? Your car is presumably paid off, but then you have to sink an additional years worth of payments (give or take) into servicing the car. I used to not understand why anyone would lease a car, but now I'd rather have the payment as a fixed expense every month rather than spend 4 years making higher payments, then finally pay it off and not have a payment only to need to sink $4000 into it. YMMV. [/quote] I have an eight-year-old Acura that has cost me only basic maintenance and one battery. When it starts to need major repairs we'll trade it in, but in the meantime we've gone four years with no meaningful payments on the car, and are hoping to get at least a couple more.[/quote]
