I'll make this as short as possible. Just asking opinions on this.
I had a 2011 5.0 and it was my pride and joy. Wife and I are trying to have a kid, and she ended up prego. Her car is a 2dr 2009 Eclipse (paid off); and of course the 5.0 was not paid off. I started getting into daddy mode and decided to trade the 5.0 in on a 4 dr vehicle. (Yes, I know a baby can fit in the rear of a mustang)
Anyways, wife had ectopic pregnancy, so no baby. We are still trying but I still wanted a 4-dr. I ended up trading the 5.0 on a 2013 4dr Toyota Tacoma. I'm saving 120.00 a month on a car payment.
Here is the point to all my rambling. When I got the Tacoma, I told the wife we could look for an older Mustang. Mid April, I found my 1997 Cobra. Excellent condition, aside from 148K miles. (mostly all hwy miles).
The wife's car gets the garage along with the Cobra. My question is, would you put the brand new 32K truck in the garage or the Cobra? I have the Cobra in there now. I initially had the Tacoma in the garage but got tired of seeing the Cobra getting thrashed outside. My friends convienced me to keep the Tacoma outside by asking me what vehicle I would keep longer. Of course I said the Cobra.
What would you guys do in my situation? New Tacoma or Cobra in the garage?
