How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis?

How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis?

We live in a society where people typically drive their vehicles for a short period and do not actually pay them off before jumping into a new one. There can be many reasons for this. This means that the total amount that they owed on the previous vehicle is tacked onto the new one so. Therefore, many people are indebted to their vehicles more than they are with their actual home loans. For these types of people, leasing a vehicle sounds like a good option because you get a new one every two years. The only issue with this is that you are only allowed a certain number of miles per year. So, for those of us who travel long distances every day back and forth to work, school or traveling, leasing is not the best option. We exceed the number of allotted miles in only a few months.

The Alternative to Leasing A Vehicle

So, what does someone do that travels great distances every day to be able to lease or to fit within the qualifications of a lease agreement? The best thing to do is to purchase a used vehicle. There is no sense in paying $75,000 for a brand-new truck when you can get the exact same truck with low miles on it for almost half the price. This is obviously a better investment as well. Yes, you may be obligated to keep the vehicle for the entirety of the six-year note, however, once it’s paid off there’s no harm in getting another one. This just means that it may not be wise to get a new vehicle every two years but possibly every 5 to 6 years. And, the best part about not leasing is that you are not obligated to stay within a certain number of miles every year. You can drive as much or as far as you want. When you lease a vehicle, you may want to take a trip out of state to watch the leaves change in Rhode Island, or travel along route 66 and see all the sites, however, you know that doing that would exceed the number of miles you are allotted for the year. Why should you restrict your travels because you lease a vehicle when you could own a vehicle and travel whenever and wherever you like?

Used Vehicles in Abilene, Texas

Purchasing a used vehicle instead of a brand-new one is not only a wise investment, but it really helps to cut down on the cost of your monthly payment. No one should spend as much on a vehicle payment as they spend on their mortgage. This is where buying used can be beneficial.

I Think He Forgot Something

I Think He Forgot Something So this is funny. But according to nwitimes.com , a 33-year-old suspect made his getaway after robbing a convenience store but didn't get far. The guy had robbed a LaCrosse gas station after he informed the store clerk he had a gun. The suspect, Sean Harris, made off with food, beverage items, and cigarettes… but no money! I guess the guy was super hungry since the report stated he had a blood alcohol level higher than the limit for legally operating a motor vehicle. Harris fled the gas station, with whatever he could carry, when an Indiana State Police trooper came upon the getaway car. Not in some crazy high-speed chase, or from using some awesome spy satellite that Vin Diesel uses in all his action films. NOPE! Harris’ vehicle ran out of gas. That’s right, he forgot to steal some fuel before making off with his goodies. The Indiana State Police trooper found his vehicle stopped along a two-lane highway. Harris is being held in jail without bail.

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck?

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck? Pickup trucks are both functional and fun to drive. Many people choose to own pickup trucks because they have the capacity to haul most things such as campers, travel trailers, other cars, horse and cattle trailers, just to name a few. They also offer space for hauling many different things in the bed. This is convenient because no one wants to put a bale of hay or a deer carcass inside the cab of a vehicle even if it does fit. Trucks not only offer functionality but are also just fun to drive. They are high off of the ground and can typically travel places other low vehicles cannot go. They are great for off-road driving. They are also suitable for what is a typical Texas country tradition, mudding. Who doesn’t want to find a good mud hole and bust some 180’s and sling mud everywhere? How Do You Choose A Pickup Truck For You? Not everyone wants a big, high off the ground pickup truck. Some people want a pickup truck that offers a spaciou
