If your husband has a motorcycle and your helper seldom follow you unless necessary then why not? If that's for other purpose then yeah you should downgrade and save some penny for others. Well, yes at times you need to bring along your helper, but if it is 3 adults and 4 kids (young kids) then I shall say it would fit. I mean paying a 7 seater to 5 seater price differ quite a sum per month. Hence I would say make the necessary switch. But ever make a discussion with your spouse what did he say? I mean end day boils down to whats need and whats want and whats necessary.
Yes Sch bus is super ex nowadays. Ownself send really cheaper currently. Also, having a PARF car is better than owning a COE car to me. However, I’ll downgrade to save the extra for now. In future u can always upgrade but at least, you reap the savings now. My family also 6 pax. Kids no longer in preschool so means no more that kind of small size. But still, we r squeezing into a normal sedan car to still be able to save for now cos everything is v ex now.
I wish I can exchange my Honda Fits with you.. I have two young kids, husband and me + one helper.. Every weekend go outing is like squeezing all 3 of us like sandwiches.. But no choice, thank u COE.. I think Mummy like us really will be more worried about $$.. For me I rather squeeze now so e money can buy formula for my two kids..
my personal pref to save for now
