To me, no one goes on a 50K road trip....I mean come on. Come back to reality now.
Okay, over the next 50k lets see who's car has more expenses in repairs. I probably wont have my car that long, but maybe. I'll probably trade it in in around 3-4 years when its paid off, maybe drive it around a few years after that for some expense free driving. I got a 10 Year 100K bumper to bumper warranty. So I might drive it throughout that, but that means I'll have it for about 8-9 years because I only put 12k a year on this car. It all depends on if something catches my eye enough for me to want to buy it.
I had 50k on my old Scion. All it ever had was oil changes which your warranty don't cover.
I wasn't saying that, I was saying my brand new wheel bearing will probably last longer than the used one. And yes, you'd probably have to completely rebuild a car. How much is buying a used car and rebuilding everything that could be mechanically flawed? I know it aint cheap, I completely replaced my from suspension in my Taurus and it cost an arm and a leg, and it still kept breaking down with more problems. No thanks. Got rid of the Cadi when it started to cost me an arm and a leg to drive. My car payments aren't that high, I just pay double to get em gone faster to have some expense and worry free driving and to avoid interest.
Sold my '92 s10 blazer last summer. It had well over 300K+ miles on original motor. Think you can top that?
It was new right? and that is what I'm saying. I doubt a '97 Tahoe will go 50k miles without any need for repairs.
I don't buy used anything but a 97 Tahoe is a bit different. When it was new it might have
I will have about $3k in a 'new' 20 year old car. That is ground up, everything - you name it.
Probably not, at least not without maintenance, but I wouldn't trust anything new to last that long, we don't make classic vehicles now. I also wouldn't want it that long. With some TLC, I bet I could get my car over 300k. My '92 Bonneville has 320+k when I sold it. Yeah, it was reliable, but it did drive like it had hundreds of thousands of miles.
It is if it is payed off and I no longer have a loan and title in hand. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
I like the new Tahoes. They are snazzy looking. Don't like the price tag though. Maybe when I hit the lottery I don't play.
Chevy has stepped into a market they don't belong and they used all the bailout money to get there.
