Paid Off!

Thankful I received the title for my taco today. Got it used just shy of a year ago and I'm glad I didn't have to pay much in interest. Here's to all that own theirs outright and those that will soon!

 

Not this guy anytime soon, maybe once I'm done with nursing school I can get that snowball rolling. Congrats!

 

Oh what a feeling....owning your Toyota!

Haven't had a car loan in over 15 years and it is great to just buy them outright!

 

I wish I could own a car. People keep totaling mine though

Six Vehicles in 14 years and only one made it through a full lease.

 

Paid off my Tacoma in January but just bought a second car, put 50% down but still have a loan...

Edit: also Congrats!!

 

Paid mine off with 8 miles on the odometer. Fuck car payments.

 

Did this is in March... Enjoy brother!

 

congrats, now you have more money for mods.

 

WTF dude!?

 

1. Mustang (2 Years): Side swiped into a pole by a teenager in a lifted truck who couldn't see over the door to know I was there before changing lanes.

2. G35 (2 years): Eating at a subway and someone under the influence ran into my parked car going about 40 or so. I was the only car in the lot within a 300 ft. radius.

3. F-150 (3 Years): Someone got road rage because I honked at him for lagging a good 10 seconds at a green light, punched a dent in my hood, truck made it through the lease though.

4. Corolla (3 Years): BBQ at my first apartment car parked on the street almost bumper to bumper with a line of 100 others. Person claimed they were run off a road and happened to smash into only my car. We believe he was texting though.

5. 3rd Gen Tacoma (2 Years): Rear ended on the freeway. I was at a dead stop, car hit me going 35-40.

6. 3rd Gen Tacoma #2 (current): TBD

 

Seems you were able to handle a payment. Now take much of what you were paying and pay yourself each month. That way you build up a fund so someday down the road you can sell the Tacoma and pay cash for a new one. Have not had a vehicle payment in years.

 

Damn...
How many had insurance?

 

All but #2 and the guy who basically got away with #3 (same sketchy area), there's a huge story those two but I don't have enough energy to write it all.

 

My plan is after I pay my 19 off is to keep putting the same payments away and forget about it untill I need another new one then I can pay it off in one lump sum.

 

Yeah, this was my first time with a payment but only because I found what I wanted used and didn't want to wait. Next time no finance..min say 15-20 years lol

 

Here is your piece of raisin pie OP. Enjoy!

 

2017 TRD OR here, I got the title last week, took me exactly 2 years to pay it off. Feels awesome!!!!
