I was just curious, I'm probably not going to go buy a new car. I just want a car to play with. My room mate bought a 2012 gecko green wrangler and has a motorcycle he can ride when he tears into his jeep. I only have the MINI . I just want my beetle, I've wanted once since I was 5 and every time I save up and get close I have a big expense or the prices on the cars jump.
buy a motorcycle. not only is it enjoyable, it saves a ton on gas and you arrive home less stressed. if i didnt have a company provided vehicle, i would ride my motorcycle every day.

i also have a for escape as my primary vehicle and the wife has an expedition. 3 years ago i took out a loan to buy my f250 diesel. it was a two year loan for 8k. in the end i paid about 8700. i sold the truck for 8100 two months ago, bought the expo and escape cash.

for now i am done with auto loans. though one day i plan to surprise the wife with a new fusion on xmas morning.
