Yep. In business the money you've sunk into an old car is referred to as a "sunk cost." Sunk costs are not to be considered when deciding to get a new piece of equiptment or to keep the existing one. What matters is what money you'll save/spend on each one. If one is going to be a lot more expensive than the other, then you go with the cheaper one. It's kind of hard to apply that to day-to-day life sometimes, though.

This truck isn't bad at all. It needed a good washing, it was covered in bird shit. And a new Parking Brake cable. But that's all that's wrong with it now, It gets decent gas mileage and it's a 4wd, the truck itself is in good condition.

Not a bad buy, I would've paid more than 1,500 though, considering the mileage on it. Good to hear you got it running correctly, for the most part. Did you guys use some liquid wrench or pb blaster?

To get the Power Steering Box off? Heh...No...We used wrenches, cresent wrench, cheater bar, some weird ass forked thing, and Sockets to get it off.

Oh no, liquid wrench and pb blaster are both used to untorque bolts, it works its way into the grooves so it's easier to get off bolts that may be rusted or have been torqued by the factory and sat on there for years.

Eh? We muscled em off, To be honest, I'm not car literate, neither is my dad, we just had to work with what we had.

That's cool, what's the next project?
