    I went through the new vehicle phase when I was younger. Eventually learned like most do, that new vehicles just make no sense from a financial perspective. Let someone else take the hit that has the money to throw away. Deals can be found on quality pre-owned vehicles and save you thousands.

    Funny we missed each other In quartzite, we arrived at rice ranch the day after you left. We had a weenie roast the first night, and enjoyed meeting all the people staying at Rice Ranch. I have been towing a Fiat 500 Abarth since I bought the RV. Sadly however when I drove back to Phoenix the fiat didn't survive the trip back. I'm not sure how low to the ground your 500 is, but ours was really low, so low that we couldn't get an oil change at most places, or use automated car washes. I will miss the fun and pep of the Abarth, but I wont miss having to avoid camping off grid. I will be driving to Denver to pick up a 2006 Honda Element AWD as the new tow car, and I hope that frees me up to more areas to camp and travel off the beaten path.

    Rusty, I like the way you were talking yourself out of the deal before you arrived in Del Rio. I wanted to help you turn around the vehicle and go back home.

    Cars are depreciating assets so if I could go back in time I would have saved a lot of money by keeping cars for at least 10 to 15 years. I used to be a Chevy guy but not anymore. Toyota is the only car I would consider replacing my current Toyota Camry Hybrid. I would buy a Tesla if decided to go all electric.

    As to what to buy, Toyota, Honda,Mazda 3-4 years old great vehicles buy with low miles all have great resale value.
