[Editor-in-Chief]
With the July Fourth Holiday behind us, America’s summer long vacation road-trips begin.

Other Factors
For example, you must consider additional concerns such as: depreciation, fuel costs, insurance, maintenance and repair, invoicing and sales tax.

And, always let some other fool take the depreciation hit; buy previously owned [a.k.a. used] cars.
Assessment
Anyone who is a regular reader of the ME-P knows about my vintage 2000 Jaguar XJ-V8-LWB European touring sedan built in Coventy, England. She is a beauty who has never known rain, winter or snow. Mostly highway miles, always garaged. She not only clicks – she ROARs!
