Well we decided to spend the 8,000 and get rebuilt motor with lifetime parts and warranty, transmission with warranty, front end suspension parts, tires, just to keep for awhile. I go to Oreilly Autoparts because they have lifetime warranty on their parts. Good thing , because alternator failed two times. Motor has 36 month/ 100,000 mile warranty, transmission has 60 month/ 100,000 mile warranty. Where would you get a warranty on a vehicle for 8,000 dollars the money I spent to refresh a vehicle. Did it to drive for another 5 years or longer. Did all this back in 2013. Well, it was worth it, to me. Its a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. It had 150,000 miles on it in 2013 when did all the work. Still going on at 209,000 miles .

We own a 2001 F350 crew cab dually. There's no way I can afford to replace it, not with new ones hitting $60-70,000 US dollars. We'll try to keep her going for a long time.

Aw, Z. You must have been really attached to the original car. May I gather that the interior was cherry? How old was the car? If it was already paid for and driven a while after, why not sell it (the interior alone should bring a pretty penny) and buy a shiny new one with all the bells and whistles? I'm so glad you're getting your money's worth out of the original......

It would depend on how much life it extends to the vehicle. $8000 would go a long way towards a replacement that may serve you better in the long run.

Of course, I'd have nearly half my choice for a new vehicle paid off with $8000. Insurance, like you said, is a consideration.
At first glance this Hublot may look like a standard Skittle from a link colorful bag of Big Bangs Im still crushing on the 42mm Yellow Magic but look a bit closer and youll find a cool and rather subtle geometric rendering of link a rhino in the sub-seconds display at nine oclock. Not only is this a lovely little detail that blends into the complex stage of this Hublots skeletonized dial but its also a hint as to this link watchs own greater purpose.
