I drive an old car. All I do is pay 50 a month for gas and occasional oil change. Dunno how people justify spending hundreds a month on cars unless it’s a truck that they use for work.

I'd rather just get a new car. More reliable and gets the poosy wet.

Unless you can get a sweet sweet deal.

More reliability and looks better plus the sweet warranty.

Used car prices aren't adjusted for cost of mechanic and down time.

Lol @ driving a vacum cleaner

I’d have more respect for someone driving a 1995 honda
-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

You don't understand the need to MOGG other men? I see dozens of $100k+ cars every day, putting through traffic the same as any other car. It's strictly about MOGGING.

Dude this guy I know spends 1/3 of his income on his car payment for a 70k Tesla.

I told him and some friends it's a bad idea, and they all said i'm just hating lol.

Ehh.. usually people with cash have a lot of money.

I mean, the only reason why I had a lot of cash is because... yeah not gonna say.

first of all, buying a brand new car is an incredibly stupid financial decision given the rapid depreciation. i buy slightly used ~3 years old. the loan interest rate with my perfect credit score is about 4%. my muni bond fund currently pays about 3% tax free yield. cash pays a yield of about 0.60% taxable. stocks (the S&P 500) over a 10-20 year holding period historically returns an average of about 10% annually but there's no guarantee and you will prob have a lot of volatility over that time (a typical car loan is what, 5 years? - so in that comparable short time horizon you could be underwater on that investment).

I bought an 05 prius as a winter beater car. The o2 sensor has some weird sheild that is making changing it a pain. I took out the battery and tested each cell and most are 2500-3500mah (pretty crappy considering they were 6500mah new). Some even 1000mah. But car works ok, still get 50-60mpg.

Yea I just bought a Honda Accord for $2500 cash. From my dad's/buddy's used car place. Was going to sell it for $4500 but offered me wholesale price.

Two months left on my lease. Paid off though. No debt crew.

This man gets it. Debt is slavery. I don't like debt. And it makes me think twice about pissing away money on a depreciating asset like a car when I have to write that big check. You really ask yourself - Do I really NEED a new car? The last car I bought was 17 years ago - a brand new 2004 Lexus - that I paid cash for. Yes I bought it new but it wasn't so bad because I kept it for 17 years. My next car which I'm buying soon will probably be a 2017-2018 used Lexus - not a new 2021. Why? Because there will be a $20,000+ 100% price difference. I can justify paying 100% more ($20,000) for a new car vs. a slightly used one. When you're debt free you alway want to stay debt free. When you have a bunch of debt and payments you get stuck in that mindset and it becomes your debt lifestyle. I don't want a debt lifestyle - I want a cash lifestyle. I bet I'm driving one of the oldest cars on this forum.
