When is it time to junk a car? – MDW368 – #napodpomo21

shootjeep When is it time to get rid of the old car?  I have 2 of them that I really shouldn’t put any money into. BUT, they are not THAT broken.

First on the list is my Loser Cruiser My 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan that has a 1/4 million miles on it. It just keeps going and going and going. Right now its leaking power steering fluid. If its the Pump, then it *might* be time to junk it.

The other one is a 2006 Subaru Forester that I already totaled once, bought it back, traded it for a pickup truck, traded back for it just recently.  It has numerous issues.  But nothing too expensive, just a Pain in the butt.

My nephew just junked my old 93 F-150 that I sold him 8 years ago.  The frame broke.  It was time.
