Purchased to keep vs. Purchased to sell

She needed the AWD pretty fast due to going on dialysis, so she has to be there 3 days a week no matter what..in the cold weather months of New England, that includes snow

 

My FIL's rule of thumb is keep a car for 1 year per $1,000 you spend on it... so I'll be keeping mine for 36 years I think is what that works out to?

 

Definitely bought mine for the long haul.

 

The wife will likely keep her 2013; she don't like vehicle payments. Not sure about my 2017....I tend to like things that are shiny and new.

 

Keeping mine until there's something better. Simple as that. Bought the vehicle that fits my needs, until something else comes along that is better no reason to change up. Good to know if ever needed the things hold their value like crazy though!
