[quote=Anonymous]This is always such a tough question. I had a GMC (about 6 years old, 110k mileage) that required 5K repairs over a 2 year period - transmission went, plus a couple of other things. I was seriously thinking about getting rid of it, but it ended up being good to go for another 5 years/50k miles, without any additional major expenditures. However, somewhere around 160k miles, numerous problems were cropping up and I could tell that it was going to be $$$ to keep that car on the road for much longer. At that point, I didn't have any doubts about getting rid of it. But it turned out that the $5k at year 6/7 was a pretty good investment - I definitely got an additional $5k of use out of that car!
