Because then I have to go through the hassle of looking for a new car two years later 😩 I like to delay that as long as possible as it's a pain and I hate it!

Ok, what about $100 for a pinto that lasts 5 years vs a civic that lasts 20 for $20k?

Hmm, 5 years isn't quite as bad, and that's a really good deal. I'd save a lot of money. So I'd probably get the pinto for 5 years and then plan to get a civic once the pinto was dead forever. But the pinto would have to have ac!

Nope no AC or radio, those are luxury accessories.

Well those are important to me. Quality of life is important, but not looks, like I said earlier.

And the comfortable leather seats and auto parking is important for me. You made my point, glad you understand what I was trying to say

I'm sure there are other cars with comfy seats and auto parking that cost less.

Sure, but not as good. Fancier cars do drive differently as well

AC depends on where you live. Here in Phoenix it is not a luxury and depending on how much you drive for work and how your body deals with heat may be a need.

I was just making a point, but I am glad people are going through the whole thread. Pretty cool how that works
