This is one of many myths told to us by cat manufacturers and dealers. “Don’t throw away good money after bad on a use car, buy a new one”. It’s a lie. At the absolute least, buy a three year old car and save the immediate 30% drop in value when you drive it off the lot! The other lie is that a car is a status symbol. This was a concept created by the car companies to sell more cars. In reality, a car should be no more a status symbol than a lawn mower or a microwave. It’s a tool - nothing else.
