I totally agree with this article. I have seen many friends and family members fall into this trap. I was never one to buy a new car every 3-4 years. I still drive my 26 year old pick up that I maintain and keep in excellent condition. In addition, I have had my hot rod for 28 years. I think what keeps me out of this kind of trouble is that I have always hated debt.
I had to stop reading. I saw too much of myself in that article.
But I've gotten much better in the last few years. I still have my '97 Chevy truck I bought new.

MV,
Good for you, you have seen the light. As I said before, I still drive and love my '84 Chevy PU that I bought new.

This is exactly why a 2000 Camry is in my carport right now.

Incidentally, the KBB value on my 2000 Sienna is higher than when I bought it in October
