Thats why I buy new, then I dont have to worry about it for a couple years. I am going to drive this one past 200k and then probably get a new one.

I really do enjoy mechanical work, rebuilt my first engine when I was in 4th. grade, a 5-1/2 hp Evinrude, but since I got Lyme's I've slowed way down really can't stand for more than 10 minutes before my knees go bonkers, however I never give up and try to sit when working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather work my job longer and use that money to pay someone to do the things I think suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call it steppin over a dollar to pick up a dime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
