I understand that have'n extra cars is not always a good idea. That said, my ton truck at todays prices would cost me $2600 a year to drive to work, my car cost $1040, a save'ns of $1560. My car has been paid off for 3 years. If I am going to put 25,000 a year (work is not this much but that is about what I put on my car) on a ride, and own it for say 5 years. I think it would be cheaper to buy a $10,000 used car and sell it for $3,000 after 5 years than to buy a $25,000 used truck and sell it for $8,000 in 5 years. I have 3 vehicals insured and licensed, the car cost $84 to license. The cost for insurance is about the same for the three as it would be for two. If I droped the car the price on my two trucks would go up. For me, the price of gas, no more than the maintance and daily cost of my car, it works out for me. For what most farmers around here do I think a $5,000 small pickup would pay off. Many people put 10,000 plus miles a year on a 3/4 or 1 ton just going to get fuel filters, lunch, and to the bank. After five years the nice truck would have 50,000 fewer miles on it and be worth 5,000+ more. Why do people think they have to drive to the post office in a $30,000 ride that gets 15 mpg?
