If you're undecided about whether to buy a new car, wash and detail your current one...

If you're thinking about buying a new car, but you're undecided because it's more of a want than an actual need, clean out, wash and detail your current car. Make it look as good as possible, inside and out.

Then step back and look at it, and you might just fall in love with it all over again. It might rekindle the excitement you had when you first bought it. Which might save you thousands of dollars and hours of car-shopping and haggling with dealers.

But if you decide to get a new one anyway, your old car will be all spiffed up and ready to sell or trade. Either way, the work will not have been in vain.

I just went through this whole exercise myself, and am about to call and cancel the appointment I had to buy a new car today. 🤷‍♂️
