This is what we're doing with my Wife's BMW X5. I just put $6K into it because I'm not paying MSRP for a new vehicle for her.
With the miles she puts on her car, I'm thinking of a lease for the next one.
OTOH, I'm about to start a project in Idaho. I'm looking for a used Pickup instead of using a rental car 10 to 15 days per month. That is going to be brutal.
I am considering buying one here in Houston and shipping it up to Idaho.
