Like, it can't go on forever...even the air suspension still works and is original.

I went through this myself with the Rangey, because I decided -- like an idiot -- to drive a newer one and was like "Wow, this is even
more powerful and
more comfortable and
more bad-ass looking."
But then I took a step back and realized that September will be the first time
in my adult life that I do
not have a car payment. Why do I want to sign up for that again just to have a newer version of the thing I already have? Both my vehicles are now paid off, I thoroughly enjoy both of them, so if something breaks, just fix the thing. It can't be worth it to drop another $51k on something else, can it?
