Jeeponomics 101: Eternal tirekicking for the spotless Jeep

What will paying more/less do for you for this economic downturn. The jeep is a fixed cost already... ? Confused by the reasoning here. Not like it's going to get cheaper if you pay off "more" or less. The loan amount is set. My apologies, I worded that awkwardly. I meant to say that I wa...

Jeeponomics 101: Eternal tirekicking for the spotless Jeep

You can't get a lower rate than that... pretty much it. :impressive: loan length tho. Yea probably, figure I may try later to at least reduce the term, though I intend to pay off the car way before anyhow. Don't like this debt business with an impending economic bubble... I may just be paranoid tho...

No one wants to sell... the desire is always BUY BUY BUY. You only sell cuz you want something else and you can't/don't want to free up the funds. We're not Jay Lenos on here who "never sold a car"

Jeeponomics 101: Eternal tirekicking for the spotless Jeep

That’s pretty standard now. What does the down payment have to do with anything ? If you have any cash sitting around that is earning less than 4.9% throw it at the loan It is w/ 84 months so I intend to throw a bunch of money at it to pay it off faster and try to refinance w/ lower rate and period...

Your self loathing runs deep, but very cool. I think you have the know-how and garage to do this. Would you sell the C5 to add this in? Probably. I love the car, but never drive it.

Adaptor and Chinese lights $220 versus OEM $1,000 and on back order
I'm just going to piggy bank for OEM once they come out. Plus focus on paying off the car ASAP to avoid that nasty nasty interest.

I usually play the game very well, my SS sedan cost me nothing, my Z06 made me 4k and there were other scenarios where I came out ahead or broke even, I understand in some situations there will be cases of drastic depreciation values but $7k is hilarious. How much it cost me to get out of a 370z th...

Can't recollect exactly, but this is an all new model, they are mounted differently IIRC. But I can't recall 100% the grille also has a that "kink" in it but the lights are unaffected by it. OEM LEDs or bust on a JL, but if you gotta go cheap... https://www.lifetimeledlights.com/led-light...

Back in the 90s, my grandmother used to say that in comparison to movies from the 50s and 60s. I don't know if people were getting fat already in the 90s or not, the clothing styles were so fucking baggy that you often had no idea how a person was shaped. https://amp.businessinsider.com/images/54db...

The mid sizers overall don't seem to be the depreciation proof assets. Looking at the used market some of the Colorados are pretty cheap I blame rebates. When I got my truck, I was able to take advantage of $3500 in rebates. Rebates are the devil for resale. That's the name of the game, the MSRPs g...
