Just paid my baby off!

Congrats. A couple years ago, I was literally making $1,000 to as high as $2,000 a month payments. And in about a year, I paid my 370 off.

It took a lot of perseverance and living a "lonely" life to do it. I rarely went out, was super frugal, etc. But ironically, I sold my 370 shortly thereafter.

Now, go celebrate by visiting a Porsche or Chevy dealer and trade it in for a C7 or 991

It's an earn-and-spend treadmill world we live in LOL!

Haha. It's VERY tempting...but I think I'm going to just bank the payments I'd be making. I also have an 04 Wrangler that I might fix up a little more too.

not only does that sound depressing but you just lost a large percentage of your 'equity' invested... =(

if you were going to make many sacrifices like you have atleast hold onto it for a bit longer?

Cars do not build equity. They're liabilities no matter what...unless you're talking collector cars that people will pay big $ for at auctions.

Naw, I wasn't depressed. I see coworkers who live up to their eyeballs in debt. I don't like the feeling of being tethered to lots of debt. I don't see that as happiness, but rather STRESS. I'm digressing a bit, but I see guys spend all sorts of money on cars, tech gear, clothes, going out every weekend, etc. but they still get no action with the ladies. To me, when you spend all that money and spin your OWN wheels...that's a pathetic life.
