every single person i know
every single person i know buys new cars. what a waste of monthly income. My husband and I saved for our truck 10 years ago like 4 months or something straight, saved 8K and bought our truck we drive now, 1996 7.3L F350.
Before that I saved for all my vehicles save for 1 i bought on time, it was such a nightmare i never bought on time again.
We are good with our truck and have put lots into its upkeep, but we had it because we dont have car payment overhead nightmare like our friends do.
I have 1 friend who just bought a BRAND NEW toyota truck THAT GETS 12MPG
what a sap!
Before he bought this piecer, I told him " save. buy cash. buy a mid 80's Toyota 4 runner V6 30-40 mpg". He said "i want it now and i dont want to wait!"
i have other friends they buy on time as well, and cant afford to.
I guess we are a dying breed of savers. In fact no one wants to save for anything these days, they are renting underwear. its pitiful.
