Default Car payments

Car payments Suck. I don't see how people live their whole lives with one. This is my first one thats been longer then a year all my other cars i've paid off before 1 year.

I'm so tired of not having all my vehicles payed off.. My bikes are, my daily driver is but I'm still paying on my Porsche.

Someone buy it I'll sell it super cheap! :P

/end rant.

Well yes yes they do which is why I hope my truck last forever. But now you want to sell your Porsche? I remember when you got it, you were super happy.

yea they do. ive never personally had one, im still drivin the 94 silverado ive had since 16 years old... pushing 300k miles right now but no car pmt, cheap insurance, etc.

my wife on the other hand had a grand am, was 6 mo from paying it off, then traded it in and got an envoy. its only a 4 year loan and i told her the goal is to pay it off, and NOT get a new car right afterwards so we can save some money up. hopefully that happens, but i dont think ill ever want to get a car. i about to start a new job making almost double my income, and still have no interest in getting a car pmt

I owe 6k in loans to the bank. Some was for a car some not. Would be nice to have it paid off but every time I knock a nice bit off it a few months later I borrow again

I'm doin my part. $400/mo for my car when I almost always ride my bike.

But ... I love my car and hopefully it'll last a long time. Not having those payments over my head would be great, though.

What kind of Porsche? If its a Boxster S you can pay me 5 grand and i'll take it from you.

I owe about 20grand or so on my Tahoe but should have it paid off in a year and a half if I continue at my current payment schedule.

And I financed my RR for the loan history, but will be paid off in a year. So 8 months left? not sure what it is exactly.

But yes... money going out always sucks.

One year left on the car and it can't come fast enough. The minute my last payment is made I'm going bike shopping
