OK, above you see the picture and value of a 2005 Hyundai Sonata. This is an identical likeness of my car, color and all. Out of curiosity today I looked up the Kelly Blue Book Value. I have been paying on this car for a little over two years, yet I owe about $1000 more than the blue book value still. I wish when someone decided to screw me, they would take me out to dinner first. And for those of you who say sell, nope, my credit has declined greatly since the purchase, the hopes of getting something else is about 10 years away. I must take care of this baby. Well, since being retired, the added mileage has almost come to a stop. I now only go to the doctor about 1-2 a month, and I only live three miles from a grocery store. No more 65 mile a day drive to work. So keeping the miles off should be pretty easy. Wear and tear? Yep, first month I bought it when it was beautiful, I dropped a smoke while driving, fell between my legs, nearly wrecked trying to pull over to find it, burnt the drivers seat... sigh. Sending my son off to IRAQ a little over a year ago... truck in front of me threw a rock while I was traveling trying not to miss his bus to see him off... 3 days later a crack runs across the bottom of the windshield. Very low bottom, not in drivers view, but still a crack. And its dirty, LOL. Why did I blog about this? Im so bored! |

| Daveman August 7, 2008 01:39 AM PDT I drive an older model car myself. Got it for $600 had a little work done on it and saved a bundle. Sounds like you have the same luck I have on keeping a nice car. Anything that can happen will and lowers the value. I am half awake while reading and writing so Im not following flow of thought berry well - lol | ||
