I have a question. Is it worth it to hold on to an old car? Let me rephrase that. Up to how old should you hold on to a car; or how long should you hold on to your car before you replace it. Does that sound better? Or… one more, how often should you change your car? Ideally, as some would say after five to six years, or 10 years max.
