We had to buy a car today, because our car of 12 years died after 221,000 miles. email this discussion to a friend?

We were good to the car and we certainly can't complain how it treated us. Twelve years is a long time. For the motor we needed it was about $5,000 not including labor to put it in, so we let it go to car heaven. LOL

Have you ever had a vehicle that was almost a family member? We bought it new as a leftover after we first got married.

Congrats on getting a new vehicle! I am dropping my own off in a few days to get some stuff done to it. Just had to replace a tire so I am hoping this will be it for the rest of this year.

The one we bought certainly isn't new. We bought at a buy here pay here where we knew the guy. He's the only car salesman I would even halfway trust. We've bought from him before. The first car I bought from him actually died at our house. It was a battery. I was mad. He actually paid to have the battery replaced.

You should always replace the battery when you get a used car. Unless you know the history of the car or if the seller certified the battery you can't know how long it will last. I forgot to replace mine in the BMW even though I had planned to do it and it died on me one morning when I went out to the car and I had to get my dad to come because I had not renewed my AAA - a double whammie!

I'm sure your husband has checked out this car you just got thoroughly.
