One of THE best moments, I remember my final payment a year ago. It was 2 years early, and That was the one payment I was more then happy to make.

Congrats! Liberation I know the feeling. Paid the Vette off one month, the Harley the month after and the Hummer the month after that. Time for more mods.

That is awesome. I took a second job last year and saved my money up and paid cash for mine. I worked every single day for 6 months but it felt so good paying cash for my vette. Best feeling in the world knowing its all yours.
