Make sure you don’t waste too much money on car breakdowns

When it comes to Americans, we are ALL trying to hang on to our cars as long as possible. In fact, the average U.S. vehicle is 12.1 years old. The problem with this “national habit” so to speak is that most of the big-ticket auto repairs usually occur after the warranty expired. So driving your car until the wheels start falling off equals no car payment and more money for you to invest.

On the other hand, paying out thousands of dollars in car repairs every single year equals LESS money for you to invest. That’s when you need to consider looking for GOOD coverage for future repairs.
