Bean counting

Purchased 8/20/14
Miles driven 1917 (that will not stay at that high an average)

Annual depreciation
Fiesta $1000.00 Sentra $0

Insurance
$80.90 less per year

Taxes
$160.00 less per year

Tags and registration=no difference

That is $1240.90 less in yearly cost of ownership.

Considering the additional cost of fuel@10k miles per year at about $250, that leaves right at $1000.00 per year in reduced total cost of ownership.
Money in my pocket, tax free.

New tires installed tomorrow morning at 6 AM. About $925 total spent on the Sentra, and it should not need anything else any time soon.

Today I found that my bank had made a mistake (corrected by them) that added $300 to my cash balance.
