[QUOTE="Tango, post: 185231, member: 5781"] So I checked with the insurance if I went ahead a bought a new 1LT, not bad not bad, only 681$/year for a brand new replacement -1000$ deductible. My GF called me this afternoon after having lunch with her dad and he thought I was going for an older 20 000$ dollar car, he was astounded to hear it was 60K plus taxes. Then said I should save the money if something happens to me, wait several years before I bought it, expensive storage fees, what am I going to do with this thing anyway, etc. Heck I'm not paying it all in one shot and put all my eggs in one basket but I sure can sell it cheaper it if something really bad happens. I think it's better to have a car I can sell and lose some cash than having all the money in the bank account doing absolutely nothing... Money that no one sees in the bank won't turn heads in the summer and put a smile on my face saying good job buddy you accomplished something. I have built many modified trail trucks and I loved the attention it got. If I can't find storage that's reasonable in rent I'll just buy a tempo. Just today a customer called for a service call so I could you know just come out in the evening for cheap as if I'm a nobody. He hung up on me mid sentence. I freaking deserve a reward. [/QUOTE]
