Most of the time I will agree with you but if you but not in my case.

Then I bought mine, I was driving a 2G GST. I ran the numbers and with gas at $2.25, I would save over $3500 per year in fuel savings alone. I bought the car used for $8700 (great deal at the time) and have now owned it for 3.5 years. The highe gas prices went the more I saved.

I also received a check for $3000 for the hail damage caused in a storm last year. I definitly wasn't going to get it fixed.

That car is the best purchase I have ever made, 90k miles later not one issue. If you know what you are doing they can be a great purchase.
