The Don is getting married soon.

You have wedding expenses to worry about, a honeymoon, and setting up a household together.

You should be saving your money for all those things, including maybe a down payment on a house.

The last thing you need is a payment on a car you don't really need.
We already have a 3 bedroom tow home that as bought 5 years ago and it's scheduled to be paid off in 10 years. Wedding is paid for any honeymoon is already taken care of. Buying plane tickets this week.

I've finally made it to a point in my life where I can get a car I want and not buy one that I need to replace and aging pile that I'm tired of working on. I'm probably not buying anything until after the wedding because it would be dumb to buy now unless I got a great deal.
