    How can you afford that??
    if you're a baller, then you can drive anything. it's funny though, when you see a hummer as a cab.. yes weird, but true, they do exist.

    I don't live with my parents but that is my parents home. I don't care about gas mileage cause you have to pay to play. This car is so much fun, it is worth it. I knew the maintenance on the car would be high, just didn't phase me I guess. 300 bucks a tire for these advans and the thing only takes the best synthetic oil and lasts 3k miles as if it was regular oil.

    Damn.

    I wish I could be so apathetic about my money.

    But I refuse to put myself in debt.

    My student loans?

    I can pay them off with a single check.

    I assume your credit is really good, though.

    For the record, I have nothing against that, I lived with my dad from 18-21, with virtually no monthly bills to pay.

    It was pretty sweet, a great time to save money too.

    Glad I did, because now I have a sizable financial buffer for emergencies.
    You're a wise man. Not too many people are saving these days!

    Yea he is. Though it matters on how much you can save I guess. I still save even though I got this car. I don't really spend my money on anything but my car. I have no girl, family, and I don't buy little bullshit and I definitely say "**** it" to expensive vacations. It is good to save but how much can you save? What are you saving for? I mean wtf, you gonna die with your money? I told myself that at the age of 35+ I will look stupid and silly driving a car like that...so I gotta do it now or never.

    Yea, it is awesome. With trade in I am only paying 188/month really. I will pay it off quick. I don't sweat it, I still save.

    I like my '88 Chevy S-10 pick-up, that damn thing just won't die. It's had 3 beds put on the back of it so far and it still keeps running. LOL D

    Well, more power to you than. I would find my drive boring in a car like that.

    I like pick-up trucks. I've never owned one, but always wanted to.
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    OV, that's a sweetass car! I love Mitsubishis...I wanted an Eclipse until my friend bought one. Damn, did you get a good deal on your trade too...20k? BTW you can still drive cool cars when you're 35+.....just need to tone it down a wee little bit so you don't look like you're compensating for lack of something.

    I'm looking for a new car, too. My stupid car was written off in the accident, but it was a blessing because it was a hardcore piece of shit (1990 VW Golf). I'm kind of more practical, was thinking of buying a new Jetta or Mazda 3. I know. Borrring.

    My brother bought a shitty jeep for $2000, and did $2000 of damage to it by ruining the tranny. He doesn't have a job anymore, and he owes people money. Wahahahahahaha.

    I bought a car for $2000 and I take pretty damn good care of it. Hopefully by the time I am your age OV, I can afford something half as nice. I don't think you were stuck in the same shithole I've been in all my life.

    Shitty cars are nice too because you don't need to be concerned about their condition

    Well I am more concerned about how it runs than how it looks. Like I said, I take very good care of it.
