 The only advantage is not dealing with a monthly payment, if you can
 afford it.

 That's a great idea. My goal is to walk more this year, I have a dog
 that gets me walking 3x/day, but he's slowing down now - it's less
 walking and more sniffing these days. I have a market a mile away, but
 there's a big hill in the middle.
