For me it’s just a way to get from point A to point B.


When I was younger, I always thought if I worked my way into a strong salary I would buy a nice vehicle for myself.

Now I have zero interest in doing that. I make a good living and drive a paid off POS. The prices are outlandish. So is the insurance (thanks Gordon et al), and a lot of the features aren’t necessary.

My wife has a 3 year old nice SUV, but it’s only because our other one was totaled during Covid hysteria. Those were weird times to look for a used vehicle.

same.

could i go out and buy a new vehicle to match my peers at the office, sure.

do i want to, nah.

I love my paid off '09 Tacoma with 151k miles. near perfect condition. we keep wifey and the kids in a nice SUV and we travel in said SUV. my truck takes me to work. 8 miles round trip. doesn't need to be flashy or new.
