Default Re: How Many Of Still Have 01's And Plan To Keep It

I would love to trade for a GT with a 5-speed, but that isn't going to happen anytime soon. Between the poor trade-in values and having a son who starts driving in a year (teen drivers and turbos are a BAD combo) I'll be keeping Miss Ruby until she is no longer reliable -something I don't expect to happen in the forseeable future.

42,500 miles and still smiling.

As much as I like the new 300C, with retirement looming on the horizon, I have to keep an upcoming fixed income in mind. Since the 01 is paid for and I still love it (as well as the Dream Cruisers), I'll be keeping this everyday vehicle (41k+) for some time.

Once an Aquamariner, always an Aquamariner.

Our '01 has become our toy or fun car. We plan to keep it. If we decide to upgrade out PT Cruiser, we'll sell the '02 instead.

38 Months old - 10,200 Miles. Although it does'nt have the power I would like, I'm going to keep it (It looks good).

My '01 has just under 57,000 miles. Got hit by a pickup and she is in the body shop. I would like a turbo. How soon I trade partly depends on how well she is fixed. When I do trade it sure will be for another PT.

I have my 01 and it is just about paid off! So of course I'm keeping it and enjoy no car payments. Since I get to work from home now, the amount of miles I am putting on it has dropped dramatically, which is very good. I hope it extends the life of my cruiser.

I still love Seven and I guess she'll be with me forever ! 71,00 Km and she still turns heads as she passes.
