There’s a stigma or misconception that an older vehicle can’t be fixed when it gets old. Do you sell your house when repairs are needed? Absolutely not.
keep it clean and tidy, do the necessary maintenance and you’ll get to your destinations just as fast.
You’ll be thankful when you get close to retirement that you had many years of a free ride.

I truly have a hard time understanding how a family of 4., drives a 75-100 k suv and i am assuming the other family vehicle is paid for.

Lives in a 400k plus house, 2 kids in private school. Takes multiple trips a year and supports their kids extracurricular activities. Even grossing 300k a year as a family can’t leave much to be putting up for retirement.

Even if it’s family money it’s like folks are spending their inheritance now with no thought of the future.

If you got it though hey I’m. It upset it’s your money you earned it do what you want !

I know this isn’t everyone and know there a lot of families who make a lot of sacrifices to provide for their families.

Still mind boggling when you read and see the # of people drowning financially.
