“I like that math. It usually costs quite a bit less for good preventative maintenance.

I’m not opposed to buying a new car, but the math just doesn’t work for me.”

You can invest 20k into restoring an old 66 Chevy or Ford and have a REAL car when you are done. With proper maintenance a 66 model will last 20 years before it needs any major work. And even then major work is still cheap to get another 20 years out of it.

Most Toyota or Mazda vehicles will last at least 250,000 miles with basic maintenance.

Us European vehicles are Democrat supporting garbage
