I have to get rid of one, but which?
Both have power packages.
The facts:
2006 Subaru Forester
139K miles
paid for
recently had some brake work, otherwise in good condition
2008 Nissan Versa hatchback
75K
owe $5500
been something of a lemon the entire time (had to replace motors for windows and locks, trouble with check engine light revealing no problems, sometimes uses more oil than would be reasonable, has had regular maintenance though)
Pros of keeping Sub:
-heated seats make me happy
-jogging stroller, car seat and baby all fit nicely with groceries and other nonsense
-all wheel drive for WNY snow belt driving
Cons of keeping Sub:
-will likely not get what I owe on Nissan, would get more than what I owe if I sell Subaru
-worse gas mileage (although I work at home and don’t actually drive much, the Nissan was purchased when I was driving all over the county everyday for work)
Pros of keeping Nissan:
-sell Subaru for more than what I owe on Nissan, leaving a little left over for whatever
-better gas mileage
Cons of keeping Nissan:
-stroller, baby and groceries don’t fit all that well. They fit, but its annoying.
which car would you keep?
