[QUOTE="ranchhand, post: 74077, member: 2622"]this is somewhat off-topic, but i agree. I use my vehicles untill the repair costs go to high ( two $500 repairs in one year tip me off ) I then buy a new vehicle for the wife and kids and drive the old one untill it falls apart. keep it together with bailing wire and duct tape. sounds odd but i end up saving lots of money. when the vehicle gives up the ghost i donate it. right now my sweet ride is a 1997 dodge 1500 with 170,000+ miles on it. I actually "retired" it from mission critical use not long ago because it was not fit for driving a baby around ( no air conditioning, and i am in texas ) the thing has been pulling twice what it should for years and has had NO major problems! its a miracle! must have gotten one of the best ones off the line. if it hits 200k i am going to send a picture of it in to dodge ;) replaced it with a dodge 2500 turbo diesel i get to drive on the weekends ;) its also fun having a huge truck and an excuse for driving it, we haul cattle with it. last i checked they don't make a hybrid that can haul 16,000+ pounds. sorry for the off-topic...[/QUOTE]
