how long did it take you to pay off your tacoma?

well?

 

11 months.

 

30 seconds to write the check and a sucking sound out of the account.

 

lol

x2

 

Ask me in 4-3/4 years and I will tell you it took 5.

I don't mind though - the Taco holds its value. Part of the reason I went with this truck and not a new Mustang. Plus, with buying new and the amount I drive it will have about 60K on the odo when I pay it off so it should have plenty of life left for payment-free years. I keep my cars a long time.

 

Haven't paid mine off yet, but I expect it to be paid in full within 3 years of purchasing. Not to bad considering up here in canada a fully loaded 4 door TRD sport goes for 40k+

 

X3

 

one year with no fun and all extra $ going to it
it sucked but it's over

 

3 years. it was 4 years ago this last december that i bought it. 60,000 miles on it and its all mine Hell, my boy will be driving this thing to high school one day and he is only 4 right now.

 

i flew to LA with a brown bag of cash.. my deal with my wife.."no truck payments!"..only way to pull that off, was to buy a slightly used one. even with the plane ticket for two, my truck was a steal!

two payments..$500 paypal to hold it sight unseen, and the rest when i drove it, and had a mechanic friend give it a quick look..i paid him the rest from the paper bag.

drove it home on bald tires to bay area, sleep. woke up bought new tires.

done.

 

Had a 5 year loan, paid it off in 3. And that's while goin to college and only gettin to work like 2 days a week for the first year and a half.

 

2 years now its all mine

 

straight cash homie lol

 

1st Tacoma 4 1/2 years of a 5 yr finance. 2nd Tacoma, probably every bit of the loan term with a wife and kid.

 

Six months ....... poured into it .......

 

About an hour and a half................just long enough for the dealer to push the paper around.

 

What about the other 90 seconds explaining to the finance guy that you weren't getting a loan from your bank and the dealer really couldn't make you a better deal on the loan?

 

Yeah, I love that concept nowadays...No we don't want you to just pay for the whole thing but we'll give a loan for 500 less than the cash price but ends up costing 2 times as much due to interest. Fuck that, what happened to money talks, bullshit walks? (that wasn't a question requiring any answer so please do not attempt to)

 

30 seconds wrote a check!

 

payed in full before driving off the lot
