Yup, that's how I feel about cars. A car isn't an "asset".. it's a mode of transport. Generally you really don't make any money on a future trade on them (which basically puts you right back into paying a car note...)
I'd much rather have a car I love, paid for, with very little resale value than constantly scurrying to cough up $400 per month to keep paying on "something" I honestly don't like but was available at the time of need.
