Most people do is absolutely correct. Depending on your location, the elements alone (intense sun, rain, road salt, dust etc) take a big toll on daily drivers. Nearly half the day exposed to these issues and not garaged. Sitting at work or commuting. Paints are not as good today, interior fades, seats rip, headliners drop, dashes crack. Plus time and wear on every mechanical part. Hardware often goes. Air conditioner quits. One major drivetrain repair can change your thought process. And who wants that hanging over you on a long vacation destination or trip?

What if you already have the money? Here’s an interesting comment. They say it costs 100k each average to raise each and every child in your household to adulthood. We could have saved the money not having any and been a childless household. But the wonderful experience isn’t just about money. Same with vehicles. The quality of life is your real value.
