Well as the title says, the cobalt is paid off finally. 08 with 51k miles. Now it's either build, or keep as a daily and buy something else. I'm thinking about buying a 2015 Silverado after winter is over and building the cobalt a little. Decisions decisions.

 

Feels good until some old lady in a 2012 DTS hits you a month after paying it off and a week later the windshield gets chipped. A year after that you get a random dent in your deck lid...wtf? Then the following year a a girl in a 2013 Focus puts the hurt on you in the same spot the DTS hit you 2 years ago.

Congrats and mod the **** out of it.

 

Yeah I'm waiting for something like that to happen haha. And in my 8 years of driving I've never had a rock hit my window, I now have two chips in the last month.

 

Congrqats

 

Thank you. I think it's going to slowly start getting built now. Start piecing everything together for a bigger turbo

 

Build the Cobalt, Why go into debt again getting the 2015 Silverado

 

**** new car debt. Build balt and buy a decent winter beater or get a good cheap all year round DD and build the balt a little later.

 

Sell it and buy a GTO!

 

I would only have to finance about $15k on a new truck.. That's not that much. I'd probably do the loan over three years. I'm not selling the cobalt unless I received an amazing offer for it. And I would love a GTO or F body, but I don't want a 10 year old vehicle. I want something new with decent interior and since I'm buying a boat next month I need a truck lol

 

Build the balt and get an older truck. Not to old though.

 

Yeah I just hate the last body style silverados and not a big fan of fords. Plus I know I'll be keeping whatever truck I buy for a very long time.

 

Save money and buy a 2-3 yr old truck that has 50-60,000 miles. Did that with my Dakota and it has been an awesome vehicle for 11 yrs at 60% of the cost.

 

With GM's latest track record for recalls I wouldn't buy a new GM anything

 

I hate the interior of the 2-3 year old Chevys. Absolutely will not buy a dodge, would only buy a ford of the price was absolutely right.

 

Awd Dakota v8 would surprise you especially if you got one of the last few years they were built- 305hp.

 

The power isn't what I'm concerned with. I just don't like dodges at all. Especially the Dakota. I do enjoy people telling me what to do with my money though lol

 

Must be a nice feeling to get the car finally paid off.........I have 22 more payments to go on my 2010......not sure what ill be doing either......keeping and modding it or selling it......nothing really gets me excited tho as far as new cars....thought about 2015 sti but browsing their forums some people are having engine problems with the same old EJ motor thats still in the STI.....get with the times subaru.....its been 10 years

 

My cousin works for Subaru, he said he would never buy one lol. They get cars in with 10k miles and blown motors. Plus I test drove a 14 STi and was not impressed at all.

 

Didn't know that about subarus. 10 months left and my 2010 is paid off. Will keep it as long as long as possible too. Turn those car payments into mortgage and try to get the house paid by 2018. Than hopefully aan atsv will be out.

 

I'm sure it's not very common but the fact that it's happening to stock engines with low miles is worrisome. And yeah definitely don't blame you on the mortgage. Get that **** paid off lol

 

I paid mine off about 6 months ago. 2008 with 29k miles. I think I'm going the new car route. This car was a stretch at the age I was when I bought it. Now it's almost comical.

 

Yeah same here. They payment when I first got it I actually had to manage my money around my car payment.. The last two years it was just another monthly bill lol. I could easily afford double what I was paying and not have any issues

 

Its exciting to get it paid off. What ends up happening tho is that money you thought you were going to start seeing in your pockets dissappears. Dunno where it goes, its real life ******* magic.

 

I called my GTO "The Boat" LOL.

 

You never drive yours an 08 with 29K miles wow.
