I think that dog has worms, dogs that itch their butts on things usually is a sign of worms.

Considering selling my 2010 Camaro SS and getting a more wallet-friendly car.

We paid $29,000 for it brand new 0 miles. As of today it has ~50k miles on it. It's paid off.

A tire set costs about $1100 and that's in the cheaper range. The fronts are usually $300 a piece and the backs about $450. Mileage warranty is a *** to find too because the front and back tires are two (I think) sizes different, so you can't rotate your tires, thus my back ones burn up a lot faster. Already replaced 2 in the last year AFTER buying a whole new set... Once my fault, other one I have no idea how it happened.

Oil change is like $70 with synthetic mobile 1.

Premium gas is like ~$3.70 and I get like... 18-20 mpg highway. To drive to my mom's place and back (total of 2 hours) I use half a tank of gas. When it takes $60 ish to fill up, that's a lot.

Any maintenance is a ***. Someone hit my car 2 years ago and we spent probably 4-5k fixing it.

OVERALL, what you guys think? Would it benefit me to just trade her in for something mileage and money friendly?

Family friend that owns a car dealership took our VIN and checked it out and said it'd be worth every bit of $20,000 if we sell it ourselves and not through a dealership.

Honestly, I'd never use something like a Camaro as a primary vehicle anyways.

17 year old me argues otherwise.

21 year old me understands. Thus the desire to sell it lol

Watching a blindfolded run of Dark Souls (with verbal assistance of course).

I am incredibly impressed, even though I know he's beat the game like a thousand times already.

I probably wouldn't sell my car, but I've been thinking about getting a bicycle, better for me, and doesn't cost gas.

My car is so old I don't have to pay taxes on it anymore, and I don't have my license right now anyway.

When I get my federal back, I'm ordering a bicycle online, then going to put it together.

with the money you get from selling it you could prolly get a nice, likely much more efficient car. then down the line when you've got more disposable income you can grab another sports car as a pleasure cruiser or something.

Yeah that's what I've been thinking. I just can't justify those costs anymore plus it'd be nice to be able to take a drive to Dallas without paying in gas the same I'd pay to spend the entire weekend there. /headdesk

just be careful that you don't get duped! 50k miles isn't a lot on a performance engine, can get quite a large amount of the original value out of it probably.

Don't expect to get very much out of it, it's really more for humor than anything.

Get a motorcycle, and a mid sized car, that way you have the comfort of a car for the days you need it, and the awesomeness of a motorcycle (and the cheap gas).

I been thinking about buying a new car lately too, there's nothing ultimately wrong with mine at the moment, but it's just not quite what it used to be. As would be expected for a vehicle with 320,000 km on it (198000-ish miles). Like any honda it has head gasket problems and burns oil like crazy, usually fouls up spark plugs 2-3 times a year. cuts 100km off my mileage when that happens every time.
Planning on buying one of the newer Accords, probably a hybrid. In Ontario i don't have to get emissions testing for hybrid vehicles ever. :3

My car is 11 years old now, so the amount of miles on it aren't that surprising I guess.

hmm, I wonder what's up with my laptop, XI keeps crashing. Did it once, so got back in, homepointed, went to go finish quest, d/c'd>crashed, so shut the VM down, rebooted, did a file check, both POL and XI look clean.

I'll try restarting the laptop next.

I just put another zip tie on my back bumper, the one holding it up before finally ripped through the rust.
