3 person household with 2 drivers. 3 cars, FMV totalling about $5000. I keep an extra car to get to work when one of the others is broken down. One of the vehicles is a compact pickup with a canopy for diversifying utility, if needed. We're well below median household income; but we must have transportation at all times. I have found the sweet spot for used cars to be about $4000. Won't need too much work for a couple years, and I refuse to take the depreciation on more expensive cars. Cash-and-carry, I will not have a car loan, either - not paying interest. My ego is not in my ride.
