Does my head in.
Folks never factor in their time. Time is $ & the 1 thing we cannot buy.

I'll take a reliable beater/daily that I don't have to worry about messing with all the time for a few extra bucks vs a headache. One of the reasons we're getting the wife a new car. Her current will just become my beater and I'll deal with it. Only use it hauling parts or winter drive if I have to go out & she's not around. Then my Hellcat also will likely no longer see snow
