re: Would you shiite your pants if you had a $700+ car note?

I could pay 700 a month for a car but refuse to. Cars arent important to me. Just a hunk a metal to get me around. I am very happy with with my 12 year old Toyota Camry. If I had to get a new car tomorrow I would probably get a Civic or Corolla for about 18K-20K
I am not married and don't have kids. I enjoy living simple. Allows me to save over 50% of my take home pay (not an OT Baller, make 75k)

Car note currently is $1000. That’s what happens when you finance 36k for 36 months. Nbd. Buy something cheaper if you’re a poor.
You bought a $36K vehicle and have the nerve to call someone poor?

I buy them used and pay cash. Period. You've been out of work once, you learn.

Buy low, sell high.
Actually, do a simple 3-fund portfolio and let it ride. That will earn you more interest than what you'll pay on a car note nowadays.

A low mileage used one is low $30s
A Tundra? Yeah no.
Used Tundras with low mileage aren't much cheaper than brand new.
They’re all over the place here in houston. Low $30s for low mileage used ones. Not the platinum or 1784 whatever model but still the 5.7 crew cab.
In June 2017 I bought a 2016 crew cab Tundra for $34k, it had 10k Miles.

No, because I make over $600 a day when I'm working.

My grandpa's gf just died and left him a 2010 chevy Malibu which he gave to me. So my options are 1: drive around in a free car. 2: spend 750 a month on a new car. Option 1 all day

I saw a commercial today for a $700/month lease offer.
Whole lotta nope on that
So if it was a commercial for a Bentley you would say nope?
$700/month could be a great deal, just depends on the car.

Now if you could just figure out how to not pay those pesky taxes too.

No, no. He actually bought a $100k car and put down $64k therefore only financing $36k for 3 years.

Me too. I financed a diesel truck, antique vehicle, and a Land Rover about 10 years ago. When my payments got up to 633 on the Land Rover I finally realized that I was paying a lot of money for a status symbol.
I sold the Land Rover, bought a 5 year old truck with low miles and payed it off quickly. I still have that truck as an extra vehicle. I’ve financed 3 vehicles since and paid them off within 1.5 years. Having no payment is awesome and a huge peace of mind. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This is the type of thread that makes the OT so magical. Everyone here is so rich. I fit right in.

I have two over that now, so no. But both the wife and get allowances so we pay very little out of our actual salaries.
Posted on 11/25/17 at 11:42 pm to lsu xman
Anyone who's paying that for a depreciating asset is retarded.

Interesting. Not even 2 years ago I was looking for a crew max 4WD Tundra and anything 2 years or newer with less than 25k miles was within a couple thousand of a new one.
Which is why I just bought a new one for $43k
Posted on 11/26/17 at 2:00 am to lsu xman
No, because I wouldn't get a payment I couldn't afford.
