2013 Outback New transmission and engine

Is it worth putting a new transmission and engine in our 2013 Outback?

Worth it to us? Depends on you. Cost? Condition of car? Miles? Doing it yourself or paying? Do you love the car? They're a dime a dozen, why not just buy another and keep this one for spares?

Well, we know what the car needs, if we buy another Subaru, we could be in the same boat down the road. If we buy rebuilt or new, we know what we have and what we've fixed on it. New, to us , would be $15,000 minimum, rebuild, around $9,000. Just trying to decide.
Thanks for your answer.
