I know people say these things are money pits... but alot of these FCs are picked up for less than $1500 and then you put another $1500 into it fixing stuff up. That's still only $3000! Would you rather pay $400 a month for payment and insurance for 7 years on a new car? NOT ME!

Now FDs, those are money pits haha.

From my experience it's fun to have an old car only if you have another car!
