                Yup, I used to trade every year because of the mileage I racked up driving the country. You're right, the education is more valuable luv.

                    There was a time that both
                
                my husband and I had to trade cars every two years because of the mileage that we both added each year.  We both spent about 14 -16 hours a day in our cars and that certainly racks up the miles.

                    I tend to keep cars around
                
                until it's just not worth keeping them anymore.
I've had my Mercury Villager minivan since late 1996
Just turned 100,000 miles and spent around $800 for a new
timing belt and a bunch of simple stuff that needed
attention.  I thought it was well worth the money
to keep it
