well not all cars are money pits. It all depends on what you use your car for!
Here is my story.
Purchase 03 ZTW 5700$
certification 2500$
Gas $2000
Insurance 6 months 120$= 720$
Repiars+oil changes 1500$
Total money spent including the purchase of the car=12420$
Trade the car for 6000$
$ got from work for using my car 11000$
Pure profit 4580$ this money has been spent on the Escape (wife's car):( for gas
The moral of the story is buy used vehicles if you are going to be using it for work and millage. Also have a dad that works in the dealership :)
