Just something to think about.

I'd be looking at 10,000+ for most used cars(at least any better than the current state of my MPV). I doubt, when everything is all said and done I'll go over 3,000.


Edit: Besides, I like my MPV. :P. Nice space, can turn it into a covered pick up truck by taking out the mid seats and lowering the back seats, Can seat 7, and has a 6 disc CD AM/FM radio(Something that would be hard to find in most cars). It also can do 115MPH despite being a mini-van, and accelerates like a beauty(despite the occasional issues I pointed out).

I would like a Mustang instead, but my eyes are set on 2010 or 2011's and there is no way I could afford them anytime soon.

Now, if something major needed replacing, such as the engine, or tranny, I'd look at replacing it, but until then I'd like to keep her.
