Cars are expensive here so I drive something pretty simple that way I can still afford a girlfriend and a boat.
I try to turn them all over between 2-3 years for something newer because they run out of warranty, get boring and become expensive to maintain.

Had an oil leak, got that fixed for $4. Putting all new suspension bushings in for $100. After that tires and a power steering pump. Ill have a damn clean car for $4000.
I put some maintenance items on mine. All new hoses and stuff of that sort just because of age. Have oil filter housing barely seeping. Gonna cost like $8 to fix. Lol. I'll be happy to be in a 60k mile car that's been duly done through for 6500ish. Lol.

If it is 1$ for your car it is 5$ for your boat and 10$ for your airplane.

No doubt , I got my wife a bm trouble u. We are on our 5th since she has gotten the flavor. I will tell you this..... Great car, great service, I don't fit, I'm not fat. I'm just 6.1' and hate being in that car unless I'm going to beat it up. Long story short my wife wanted a nice care so we went to Mercedes dealer. Me being a self employed plumbing and heating contractor went in after work. All beat up, dirty in my work clothes . I had just done a kitchen two months earlier for the daughter of the owner of the dealership. But I just wanted to go in there do the deed and make wifey happy. Standing there for 20 min. No one would talk to use lol. So I said to my wife lets go. Two day later I was clean showered wife looking expensive and wearing my Sunday best we went back. Flocks of two bit douche bags come up to us asking if we need help. I said to them yeah we did two days ago but we decided to go with bmw across the street a sshole. True story

Drew I always wanted to do something like that but one step further. I am a concrete finisher and am not the cleanest after work. It would be fun to walk in like that with a fat stack of cash in your pocket and when no one asks like they did to u wake up to some one and tell them u want to see the owner and he walks up pull out the cash and point to a car on the show room floor and say I was going to buy that one but nobody wanted to help me so I guess I'll go some where else. Thanks for your time lol
