I think you ought to consider donating the vehicle to a charitable cause, take a tax deduction and get another Jetta.
I agree with your first statement. I do like the car but I think I reached an end point where financially it doesn't make sense. The charity thing I considered and I was thinking of parting it out...but I would need some help in that area. It sure does suck. I spent some money on it in the past year so there are some parts that are new. If I did part it out, would I post something like that here?
