I just feel like I should. Financially speaking, it just makes sense. It would put a little dent on a down payment for a Miata I've been lusting after. However, I seem to have an (unreasonable ??) emotional/sentimental attachment to it, and I just can't seem to let it go without feeling really bad.
I suppose the issue is, I really shouldn't have such a deep attachment to it. It is, after all, just a machine....

If he's not, perhaps that is the reason why you are having a difficult time getting rid of it. My sister won't sell my parents' Acura, their very last car they owned after my mom passed a few months ago. (My dad passed away in 2015).

Just for the record, I've never named any of my cars.
So in that sense, I suppose I'm somewhat normal.

I keep mine at this point because I’ve grown so accustomed to it, love how it drives and everything I want is so expensive now. I don’t really have an emotional attachment like I did with that station wagon when I was a kid.

The XK8 on the other hand, that has about everything to do with it, but that’s only been decorating the driveway for just over a year so far.
