Buying A Car

[CASPERWAIT$]

Even taking a car to the end of its life, a person can never capture the value of the depreciation from year 0-1, its impossible. Im sure Casper got a coronavirus deal, but he'd been better off buying a used accord (even one year old).

I really wanted a new car. Never had one. My 2012 Jeep Patriot, I bought w 63,000 miles on it and got it to 133,000 in 4 years. I figure I keep this car for 5 years, pay it off and then upgrade.

Agreed that I’ll most likely buy used forever.

Nice whip caspy!

Have never owned a new car myself. It always made sense to do the 2 year old version of whatever I wanted. In fact I paid off my car last year. It's actually been a great car, I'd probably have a difficult time switching from a VW for the price at this point.

Congrats on the new ride Casper -

Coulda bought an Aston Martin for that new car money. Maintenance may be an issue.

I love Aston Martins. Maybe in 5 years.
