Frankly I look at what folks spend on their cars and can't help wonder how much of this is done unwisely, perhaps on credit. As a nation we are in deep financial trouble because of irresponsible spending.
No kidding, this goes for newer cars as well, people just look at the monthly payments and sign the lease...then 3 years goes by and they spent $13,000 and turn the car back in and lease another one
I know this hobby sure isn't cheap, the money I must have spent, if only I kept track from day one, LOL
In a way the higher fuel prices have made me spend less on it since I don't drive it as much
