At some point I have to quit spending on this money on repairs and just go get a new car. I have been shopping online for a new Honda and I think that&#8217;s what I am going to buy. <\/p>\n<p>Dean was telling me that he talked with a local Honda dealer and couldn&#8217;t get a good deal working with that salesman, so he went online and started searching for a Honda Dealer that had a good inventory of new and used cars, ho wanted to set a fair price and give him a good deal on the car. It&#8217;s not that hard to save some serious money if you are willing to put in the time shopping around and asking questions of the right people.<\/p>\n<p>I might end up with a late model, used Honda before the summer is over. I just need to get a good price on the car and a fair allowance on a trade in and I will buy a car this year. It&#8217;s just a matter of how much and when it all works out to my advantage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talking with my buddy, Dean, about the high cost of repairing cars and even just keeping up with the maintenance on older cars.
