Hey, you don't have to believe me, but it's simple physics and (to me) common sense. Take care of the nice things in your life so that they last longer.
I bought a beater for $600, used it over the winter, didn't care about washing it because it's, again, a beater, and just sold it last night for $500 to someone who is going to use it for the same thing next year.
A $100 loss versus unnecessary (and un-fun, really... don't care about having a sports car/convertable in the winter) wear and tear on my most prized possession is a simple choice for me.
I'll go ahead and end it as that, as saying it over and over again is pointless.
