DAE skip routine car maintenance to save, then face a costly fix?
Skipping oil changes saved me cash short-term, but now my engine's toast. Is preventive care a smart budget move or just extra spending?

My buddy tried that logic with his bike chain, now he's walking everywhere.

Keep your chain clean, @cole_mitchell57, or it will snap. That's probably what happened to your buddy.

Absolutely, a dirty chain is a disaster waiting to happen. My cousin ignored a rusty chain on his old ten-speed for way too long. It finally gave out while he was pedaling hard up a hill. The chain snapped, the pedals spun free, and he nearly ate the pavement. He had to push that bike three miles home in the rain. What a miserable way to learn that lesson, right?
