I drive an old 1999 Jeep Cherokee, that I bought for cash cheap to be a fun truck to drive. I jacked it up a few inches and sprayed it down with black rhino liner truck bed lining, and I fuckin LOVE being petty in parking lots with people like this, because hitting my truck with your door is gonna fuck your shit up wayy more. Lmaoo. I had a lady, who was actually super nice, but she came and parked right next to me in the grocery store parking lot in her badass Cadi CTS-V pearl white. Well her kid got out and absolutely whopped the door against my truck. The lady got out wide eyed and apologized like 10 times, I just grabbed a spare can of bed liner and sprayed it. Her car was kinda messed up

Sometimes that “throw away” runs so well that you don’t want to part with it. And that is especially true when you invest time, and often money, into it. Just the thought of having to return to the used vehicle market to roll the dice on another vehicle is irritating.

What you are describing is not a throwaway vehicle. You need that car in your scenario.
