New Car versus Used?

H and I always buy used. We have more time than money. H’s philosophy is that you can buy whatever car you want as long as you have the cash. We have had great luck with a Toyota Camry, a Dodge Caravan, and a Honda Accord. We’ve had decent luck with a GMC Jimmy, a VW Passat, and a Jeep Grand Cherokee. We drive them until they have to be towed away. We are currently driving a 2017 Audi Q5 (LOVE!!) with 50,000 miles and a 2012 Volvo X60 with about 100,000 miles. I almost forgot that we did buy one new car, an Oldsmobile station wagon (around 1991) when we had two young children. We loved that car, too.

D and SIL always buy new. They have more money than time and always need two dependable cars. Their commute times can be anywhere from thirty to sixty minutes. Lives depend on them showing up.

S drives our leftovers… and never complains.
