I had a 90 Toyota pickup that I couldn't seem to avoid being hit in. Rear ended a couple times, had someone run into the bed, even had someone back into the the front once at a stop light (was worried that it as an insurance fraud case waiting to happen but luckily was not). Each time their insurance or they'd give me some money and I'd leave the damaged parts intact and move on. That truck paid for itself lol

It was one of those six shades of red, dinged and dented, but couldn't stop the motor if you tried trucks. Its the one i regret getting rid of the most.

I'm a firm believer that cars have personalities.....if it is a problem car, I get rid of it.  If it is a good car, I drive it till it dies.   

2018 dodge ram diesel......cost me a years worth of payments with repairs.  Now it is someone else problem.  My 2006 ram was the best truck ever owned and I ran it for a very long time.  Some vehicles are plagued with problems or bad mojo.  Sell the toyota and upgrade. 

As for the wife......I let you deal with that one on your own!!   :chuckle: :chuckle:  Not sure it is any cheaper to try and trade her in. 
my 2018 ram diesel got hit 2x in the first six months I owned it. The the rear main seal went out 2x in under 30k miles. I am back to driving a power stroke and I am happy
