    Chad is right. Start saving some money. Get yourself in a good financial position, then you can buy toys.

    yeah I understand. I'm just thinking if I can get school and books paid for as soon as possible, then monthly phone bill and I'm hoping to cut back on gas a lot while riding a bike around campus and places near the campus within biking distance. then what money is left after everything is paid for why not put some in the truck?

    Am I a horrible person for not seeing a problem with drug cartels killing each other??

    My best buddies saving for a 2013 Jeep Wrangler, whatever their top model is.
    ^^^^ Debt will only cost you MORE money. Since I've recently paid off my truck, I can assure you I will never carry a vehicle debt again.

    Except maybe a Porsche... :anonymous:

    Don't get me wrong, I've blown tons of money on frivolous car shit, looking back I would do it completely differently.

    I bought a 20K sports car at 18 years old.. I hear ya
    ??? Never heard about that, Why would they kill druggies??? Isn't that their business? Most relapse don't they?

    Ferrari's are junk, and I don't have enough experience with lambo's or the nissan GTR. My statement stands :cool:

    Save your money. When ever you buy something for your Truck, put an equivalent amount in Savings.

    My dad's friend had a Ferrari, had nothing but problems. Not certain which model it was but Ferrari doesn't rate at the top for reliability.

    I don't like that car.. Responsible for killing one of my best friends.

    Well, the drunk driver of said car running a red light and getting T-boned by a semi is the actual cause. Still, bad memories.
