Used Auto Parts VS New

Is it really a good idea to use used auto parts on your car? Some people might make the argument that it is not a good idea to use used auto parts but I beg to differ. I been owning and operating a motor vehicle since I was the tender age of sixteen and there is something that I have learned about cars over the years. The thing that I have learned about them and that is firmly ingrained upon my mind is this. They break down, yes they tear up, they wear out and we are stuck with two choices. Either we fix them and keep driving them or we get another one.
