Oh, I read that quote the opposite way (wrongly, I think now) –

> > There's an incredible amount of value in simply not worrying if your car will run when you need it to.

> True, being able to know for sure you can get to work (or wherever important) is a huge peace of mind.

If you don't worry about it not because you trust it, but because you just think you'll take it as it comes and don't particularly care if it doesn't start one day, there's also a lot of value in that you could save a lot on used prices and servicing!
