It's really not that hard to care for your stuff.
If we're arguing investments... Preventative and proper maintenance and repair, in MOST scenarios, save you time and effort down the road. Read: better ROI.
This is in the aggregate, but I dare someone to argue otherwise..

There is no such thing as a ROI with a car. It is all downhill on a depreciation curve. Pick whatever depreciation curve you like and live with it.
If I have to take care of something that ain't alive, I don't want it.
By the way, this works for lawnmowers and snowblowers as well, rather than pay the annual $125 tune-up cost and the hassle of getting the thing there and back, just buy a new one every ten years, they seem to last that long no matter how much you neglect them. Its the same money regardless.
