Which is cheaper to have a car or a horse,and why?

Answer 1

Buying an average new car would cost anything between 6000 and 18000

Put that type of money on a horse and your buying an above average horse

Your car will lose on average 10% per year, horses increase in value if you win competitions on them.

I pay out about 100 a week on average on my horse so the cost per year would be 5200.

For my car I average about 60 - 75 per week on fuel and maintenance 3120 - 3750 per year.

At 10 years my car will be past its sell by date. My horse will be in its prime

At this point I would be lucky to get 10% of the original cost of my car back, my horse would have increased in value by at least 50%

Answer 2

I can buy a $1000 car and park it for a month without it costing me extra money. That horse eats constantly. Hay and feed add up quickly. Veterinarian bills aren't cheap and that horse probably can't go 50 miles an hour for very long. A reliable car will cost less to maintain, and the car won't get mad if I leave it in a garage for a week.

Answer 3

In the long run it is probably cheaper to have a car. Horses require food and shelter. It costs a lot to feed and house a horse.
Even when you consider gas prices, it is still cheaper to have a car.

Answer 4

I think Horse is a better choice than a car, bcas a car will not respond to your feelings, after all MONEY is not the main matter for life, more than money, LOVE is there. Your pet will love and also you will be more happy because of you one animal is having a life.
