Hi all,
I am new to the forum and have enjoyed the wide range of topics here. It is nice to see so many like minded individuals trying to help one another.
I will be 49, later this year, own a small business with my wife in NH county, CT. If we can hold out, we would like to retire in 2025 and possibly relocate to a warmer & more tax friendly state.
We have always been very frugal, as I’m guessing many of you are, and have held on to our vehicles until we needed to replace them. Our current ones are a 04 Volvo S80 and a 95, yes as in 1995, Ford Ranger.
The question is, do many people buy a new or at least newer car going into retirement, thinking that this will last them a number of years and have the security of knowing there will, hopefully, be only routine maintenance?
