I did the beater car thing for years.. I always had a nice car I kept pristine and a beater car
for those trips uptown, Walmart and those bad weather days..
What a pain in the ass.. I always had one car that needed gas or an oil change, registration, inspection.. SOMETHING !!
I created garage queens.. usually ended up driving the beater most of the time.. and leaving the clean fun car home..
My previous car was an 08 vette.. I sold the beater car and just drove the vette all the time..
rain or shine, walmart... whatever.. I finally realized its just a car made to be driven..
Why drive some POS .. so I can save the fun one for someone else? Suddenly made sense to me and I enjoyed that vette like most vette owners don't do !
Life is too short to drive a POS.. The money you save will more than pay for some car washes and wax.. The low cost of the FRS makes it easier to drive daily..
