Default It's All Mine Now!

Just paid off my 00' C5!
I purchased it used in Sept. 02' and decided to go to the bank and pay off the remainder of the loan. It's a different felling knowing that I officially own it. I go into the garage and just look at it and I can't tell you what an accomplishment it feel's like to know it's mine all mine. I have paid off vehicles in the past, but this is totally different. God is good!

Congrats on paying off your car! I know that feeling! Now, the real test comes! Can you resist the temptation to trade it in on another!

It is a good feeling when there are no more payments.

I have $3010 left to pay on mine. 0% interest is the only thing keeping me from paying it off, don't see the point. Bought it brand new Sept 01.
