A lot of gearheads will tell you not to worry about depreciation. You buy a car to enjoy it, and you shouldn’t be worried about saving some mileage for the next guy. Words of wisdom if you’ve found your dream car, but when it comes to the daily-driver, it does pay to be practical. The better condition your car is in when you feel like trading it in five, ten years from now, the less money you have to pay for your next new car purchase.
