With the new transporter she will only have to pay for diesel fuel and maintenance, at about $65 per mile. Insurance costs for Marsha's transporter are $2, 200 per year. The transporter will probably be worth $35,000 (In real terms) after eight years, when Marsha's horse Nike will be ready to retire.
