    I just want to share we live in Texas!
    Our ac just went out last night, and our dryer went out this morning. HOWEVER, because of you guys we have a fully funded emergency savings! So we have no fear and we're able to get them both fixed with joy!

    I’m currently looking to buy a car and so far I’ve noticed that the price of a used car is very similar to that of a new car. For example, someone was selling a used car that was 6 years old with over 60k miles for only $2k less that a brand new one. Additionally, new cars have a lower interest rate if you do end up needing to take out a loan. And the new cars come with a warranty so you won’t have to pay for maintenance and repairs for years. It kind of seems like buying new is a better way to go.
    My last car was used and I spent tens of thousands of dollars in repairs and maintenance. It just doesn’t seem worth it to me

    If you need a car and don’t have much money grab a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. Doesn’t matter how many miles are on it, it’ll last forever if it was well maintained and you take care of it.

      In my area, 10-12 year old cars are selling at 45% less than they did when they rolled off the lot, 6 year old cars are selling at 20% less and the twin to my car is currently listed for 10,9 when I paid 15,9 for mine 11 years ago.

      They used to and for the majority of the used car history they have. Right now we're in a bubble (the same as housing, food, etc) but it will burst in time. This is a budgeting channel who will always recommend buying something used in good condition to save money xx

    I wanted to get a new car, a Toyota highlander, my car is 10 years old with 90,000 miles on it, a chevy equinox, a little rust on it. After thinking about it and calling some dealers, looking on line I decided I will keep that $40,000-$45,000 in my pocket for another couple of years. I am a everyday millionaire but cannot see paying that price for a depreciating asset :=/

    If you can't afford to keep a car maintained, you can't afford the car! A car is for a long stretch of time. No need to buy a new one unless absolutely necessary, as long as it get from point A-B. Learn to maintain it.

    • @rcruzthomas
      @rcruzthomas Рік тому +3

      That's the gamble with used cars. Not a lot of people keep up on the maintenance of their cars when brand new, which becomes your problem when buying that car used. Not doing oil changes on time will cause even Toyota's and Honda's to not last as long as they could.

      Depends on the car mine is a 1999 that I've had for 10 years. Sadly, she's having major issues. 3 trips to the mechanic within a month costing me $2000, she's about to go in for a 4th time bc it's stalling out when I drive. The car is only worth $500 so, I don't want it to become a money Pitt taking from my new car savings.

    New cars and used cars are very close in price. I recently went with my mom to help her haggle and prices are definitely higher because inventory is low. They wouldnt let us pay MSRP or lower. I definitely do not recommend getting a car. I'm driving my 2013 Honda Civic until it dies.

    Currently debating if i should put more money into my car or buy a new one. My car is a 1999 Avalon worth $500. She's been into the shop 3 times in a month costing $2,000. She is about to go back for issues that might cost $500+. The money is coming from my maintenance/new card envelope so, im tryong to figure out the best move.

    Well, we always buy used. But when we needed to buy a new-to-us car unexpectedly suddenly just as manufacturing was beginning to come out of lockdownwas definitely the worst time in my lifetime to buy a car. But all is well now, and with no car loan to pay off, we still save $250 every month for both seasonal care & to buy the next new-to-us car cash.

    A new car is not an investment, is something like a TV, a washing machine or a fridge. If you can afford cash for a new car go for it, the losing value issue only matter is if you are paying a loan or if you plan on selling it.
