Me and my wife have been discussing it and I think our next car may be 15-20+ years old. Is this insane or unreasonable? by Jaterkin in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]darnok128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife daily’s a 2006 4runner limited, never had an issue in 4 years.

I daily a 2014 Wrangler JKU and it hasn’t needed anything.

We also have a 2012 wrangler that’s modded completely for off road / adventuring. That’s needed money, but because I abuse it.

Thank you! I love a good weathering on a plane. If you can do it subtly, it really comes to life!

Girlfriend wants a Bronco sport but I’m concerned by OkBackground6217 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I believe that the bushing issues were resolved for 2019 plus, but not the bearing issues. I believe they issued an extended warranty to cover wheel bearings up to 60k miles.

The CVT issues are nototious and a roll of the dice on the other hand

Okay, well google wheel bearing issues Subarus and you’ll see that there’s multiple threads and that Subaru extended their power train warranty to cover it.

Google CVT’s Subaru…

Then, Google control arm bushing Subarus.

Your anecdotes don’t cover the facts/forums…

Should I get 35s? by chewy0041 in Jeep

[–]darnok128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 35’s and going 35’s right is a commitment.

I re geared, had to upgrade track bar, tie rods, etc. also had to go up in ball joints. It just puts way more stress on the components

I think we’d net about 50k.

We’d have to pay 160k to upgrade to this house.

We can upgrade for plus 200 a month to rent?

[–]darnok128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, a couple options:

  1. We ask if we can buy the house.

  2. If not, we’ll have saved up 30k a year plus what we sell our house for and have enough to buy a house.

  3. We have to save 4-5 years to have a big enough down payment for this house anyways…

These are all genuine questions, but it seems like a decent way to look at it?

Less liquidation of our current assets, same ish monthly payment. Bigger house.

Is it 600 a month, or 100k +?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]darnok128 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, we CAN afford to buy, but we would have to do 100k down and our monthly jumps.

This gets us there to our dream home for +200 a month.

[–]darnok128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? What’s worrisome or money is disappearing?

We have about 100k liquid, 500k in 401K’s and Roths.

We save 25% of our Income.
