GoldBus Rookie Author Dallas Posts:69 Points:88,885 Joined:Oct 2006	Message Posted: Jan 21, 2007 9:27:03 PM Ignore GoldBus Report Abuse My goal is to get a minimum of 100K miles out of a vehicle and preferable 200K before I trade to get my next. The current Mom mobile has 96K, and why do I want to get a new one to have more cookies, fries, drinks and clothes to end up under the seats. The Suburban works great, so if I can make it another 103K then I'd say I'll get a new or 1-2 year old SUV in 6 or 7 years.

Bill313 Champion Author Kansas City Posts:5,520 Points:772,565 Joined:Sep 2006	Message Posted: Sep 19, 2006 1:26:41 AM Ignore Bill313 Report Abuse When do you plan on purchasing a new vehicle? Not sure i need a lift in the rear of the van which adds an expense not to mention gas usage so when we keep the maintaince up and the MPG stays torerable due to the weight of the scooter, we burn the vans into the ground. Smart or not, I do not Know.
