I paid more than half in cash and took a loan out for the rest. Don't have any debts, both kids out of college, so I figgered that I 'll pay it off before the year ends. Only owe <6k. After 4 yaers of college, 4 years evil medical school, 3 years of evil residency and 25 years in practice, I got my Z.

Is it an evil practice?

I can buy one outright by December if I start saving right now, but because I work overseas as a defense contractor, it is damn near impossible to get leave that time of year because everybody & their mother wants to be home for the holidays.

I'm also looking at boosting my credit scores (just not a huge credit user) to try & get out of this "starter home" & into a nicer house in a nicer neighborhood, so a friend of suggested that instead of buying outright, finance a portion of it, & pay it off over the next 12 months which should boost my scores.

If I go that route, I'll also have the time & $$ handy to get the clear bra installed, some new headlights (love those 180 halo mods for it), rear fog light, & some Michelin Sport A/S+ (it will be winter after all). Downside, it will be sitting in the garage for about a year before I'm home for good, & thats a year gone from the warranty.

Just don't buy a 2011, buy a 2012 or 2013. Nissan might come out with a new shade of gray that is more to your liking.

I bank with USAA (not a real well known bank outside of the military), & they quoted 3.39 to 3.79 for a 48 month loan on 18K.

I'm not a fan of gray at all. Pearl white for me, with red next. Might even consider Chicane Yellow if it ever became available again.

I hope you don't live in the CT area....I sure wouldn't want Dr Evil examining me especially when checking the ole prostate! Sounds like you have an *** to grind!
