With the economy in complete disarray and people losing jobs or taking jobs that pay less than before makes decision making all the more important. Credit is harder to come by and money in general is ‘tight’ to say the least.
My experience has taught me that when one has an engine failure or any catastrophic automotive car failure the knee jerk reaction is that “I don’t have the cash to repair this, I think I’ll buy a new car. No down payment, no cash out of my pocket.”
Unless your car is really old or a complete piece of junk needing many more expensive repairs, I find this type of thinking very ’short termed’. Most likely fixing the car is in your best ‘long term interest’.
What I mean to say is that would you rather buy a new car for $10 grand or $20 grand or $60 grand and be mired in a loan for 4-7 years or spend considerably less and either owe nothing or something like $1500.00 to $3000.00 for a replacement engine? To buy a used car can be the worse thing that ever happened to you, since you never know what is really wrong with it or the problems that are causing it to be sold.
There are several choices in replacement engines available:
#1. The pros and cons of second hand or used engines.
#2. Deciding if a remanufactured, rebuilt, reconditioned engine is your best choice.
#3. Is a new engine in your future?
My wife and I both drive what is called an ‘older vehicle’. I drive a 1988 GMC 1 ton pickup that is flawless running and looking, I bought it new. My wife drives a 2000 GMC Safari van that we bought new. Why do you think we still own them, one thing is they are payed for and insurance is less expensive for ‘older rides’. But the real success is my undying loyalty to preventative maintenance like changing the engine oil with the best oils and staying on top of every possible maintenance item on the vehicle. This includes cooling system maintenance and most everything on the vehicle including things that have nothing to do with an engine. Both vehicles are good to go to Alaska tomorrow if need be(3000 miles one way from Florida)because I never put myself in a compromising spot, if I even think there is a problem, it gets looked at and fixed. It is a lot less costly than breaking down on the road and paying a ransom to tow your car to a shop in the middle of nowhere that you never heard of.
The math is simple $2000.00 beats $20000.00 any day, that is a no brainer. You can feel good and very smart that you went to GotEngines.com and talked to a specialist about solving your engine problem. We also encourage you to scope the whole GotEngines.com Blog for more helpful information.
