You know Way2slow, At some point all those things you bought used  had to be bought new , So thank all those peeps who buy new and take the hit ..

That's why I also say, if you can't work on them yourself, try to buy newest thing you can, with the longest warrantee and the best insurance you can get, take good care of it and sell it, (don't trade it) and buy a new one when the warranty runs out.  They are just way to flipping expensive to have repaired now.  I tell my wife every time I make a trip to the parts store, it's about to get too expensive for me to even buy the parts for fix them myself now, and that's getting the parts wholesale and not having to pay todays ridiculous labor charges. I recently bought a Ford Explorer for my granddaughter with a bad engine, thinking I was going to have it running for about $500.  I did have it running, but it was $1,100 later.
