2. I just got a 'new' car back in December.

The previous car was a 2002 Mercury Marquis, and I drove it until it was about used up, but it was still running when I got rid of it. Sold it for $500. It was a good car for the 10 years I had it. If you'll find you a good used car, you can just keep liability insurance on it. And get the tow package from the insurance company as well, because if you own an old car, chances are it'll quit on you now and then. I recommend getting an older Toyota or Honda or Subaru, or a dependable American car. The American cars are usually cheaper to fix. If you drive a lot, you need to get something newer and more reliable. Good luck!
