Here! Here! I second the notion – like what ya have. I hate car payments, but it is a necessary evil for a time period. Just hope my suburban last forever too!

I actually look down on people who live in debt because of their cars. Years ago I had a Mustang that I got at dealership… I paid too much and the interest rate was way too high. I was always late on my payments, and after I had paid off the car, but still owed them thousands in interest, and I was two months behind, they repo’d it. It was so humiliating.
But then I went and bought my Mazda Miata for $2000, and I drove it for 4 years. I then sold it for $2,000 and upgraded to my Pontiac Grand Prix for $5,500. Once I started making smart decisions I felt proud.
You should feel proud also. Let other people go into debt while you enjoy NOT having monthly payments!
