    What price do you think I could get folks clamoring to buy the van? I dont want a long drawn process with having to deal with people. What price would make you think, you gotta go get it? It is a fine beginner van life, or work vehicle, definately no good for families cuz the seats are gone.

    car= 21/29 van = 15/21 30% differnce! Hmmm potentially more reliable? I'd have to give the Saturn as reliable in terms of getting thru another year I am confident. If I only had the van, I'm not confident that something major wouldnt go wrong with it driving the year thru. Thanks...

    Thank you. I knew after I was widowed (november) not to make any big decisions. So I didn't. Life gets more sorted next november where I can get social security.

    Thank you. No public trans there, and it is hilly and I wouldnt feel safe to take a possible spill. I'll be 60 next year. I sure dont WANT to spend a grand in repairs on either this coming year, because they are not worth it. I spent 1,200 altogether on the both of them this year, an...

    There will be no public transportation. Good point, I will call monday about having 2 cars, and come back to report. The backup vehicle is why I spent this past year doing nothing. Not costing very much and some peace of mind. I could likely pay someone in this complex 50 bucks to drive it...

    Well it has under rust. Not on top body. Big dents (not car accident, but I scrunched it on parking garage poles, so not a perfect body twice on either side ack. So if I keep both and had a major repair on the one, I'd just junk sale it and move to the other vehicle? How far in the future...

    Im coming to the collection of wisdom here. Ive held onto both vehicles for years. Never got off the ground with van dwelling. I will be moving to a section 8 apt in the future, and I want to sell one. The van in fair condition is 2k bluebook, but it is an ugly gold dented van with no back...

    I would like to see a subgroup topic EAST of the Mississippi like there is all the other headings here, like women only or car or cooking etc. I think that is easier and welcome to many who would have an interest and that could grow in members and information. Now that Bob isnt in charge I...

    How LONG can u live within a city of 16k? Far NW TN Dyersburg

    Sorry I hadn't replied, I thought I clicked notifications to come to email. This is good info. Duh on me, there is a Love's, and a hospital. And likely more places. Unchangeable habit is I cant stay awake after 9. I have tried for years and always snap back to 9-4. So that is something Im...
