: This past summer I sold my Maverick, and it was the worst thing I've ever done. That car never left me sitting anywhere, and when it needed something, the parts were pretty cheap in comparison to newer cars. For example a set of shocks for my Maverick cost $50... the struts, shocks, installation and allignment for my Grand Am totalled over $400... you do the math. From my own expirience with newer cars, I've found that the repairs might not come as often, but they cost a heck of a lot more when they do.
: Anyway, just something to think about. Good luck with whatever you do.
I agree. Also, if it is reliable and in good shape, why do you need something easier to maintain? What are you planning on replacing it with? I don't mean to sound accusing, if I did need another car, I would jump on yours.
