Nicely put, Farmer. I usually keep my string trimmers going about 10 years
(last one was 12) before I can't keep them running anymore, then toss it...
and my wife drives a LOT newer vehicle (04 Camry) than I do. I put her
safety (and our son's) above mine since I know I can generally figure out a
way to keep broken stuff running long enough to get it fixed right, or
replaced. (knocking on wood).

I try to pick battles I can win. Momma's car breaking down isn't one of
them. Heck, she bought it herself anyway. :)
