Made the last payment today!
Today was the last payment deduction for my C5Z. I only owe another $96 and it will be paid off. I'll take care of that with cash next week at the bank. It feels good to be debt free and no car payments! Woot woot!!!

Naaaa...probably not. I have been down that road on my former Mustang Cobra. $12k later in mods and I sold the car for $2500 less than what I paid for it. Given it was 9 years later but still... I have a few minor mods already but will change out the exhaust in front of the axle back. That's about it.

LOL...thanks for all the responses guys. Honestly with one in college, a senior in high school and three more behind them, it is time to focus more on investing for a while. ;-)

That was my situation exactly...48 months with plans to pay off in 36. However a visit from a big hailstorm last year on my truck allowed me to pay off in less than two years. A friend who runs a body shop told me it wasn't worth dropping $6k into repairs/paint job on a $10k truck.

depending on how bad it is you can probably get a paintless dent repair guy to fix it for far less that what a body shop would charge
