I work from home and most of the things I need are walking distance away. I drive my 2001 Honda shitbox maybe once a week. Usually if I go out somewhere I’ll Uber/Lyft because I’m coming back drunk

I love SoCal so goddamn much

>car payment

it always baffles me how Americans go into debt for every little thing

the only thing you should ever take out a loan for is to own a house, since nobody can pay a house right away

but if you need to loan money for a car, you are driving something thats too expensive

>>55417120
I agree with this. I will only buy cars cash. I will only take out a loan for a house.

I got a ford freestyle that needs some work.
but it's paid for.

>>55417104
I drive pic related (random photo from the internet). It's an amazing drive but holy fuck is maintenance expensive, car was $300k when I bought.
Gonna sell it and buy a ram/tahoma/bronco.

>>55417145
How much can you sell it for?

>>55417115
Jelly

I put 60 miles on it but probably the same. It's a niche vehicle and boomers are retarded so they will buy it anyway.

>>55417145
I'm also from Miami. teehee

>>55417160
You already lost 25% of the cars value. This is not a niche vehicle, it is very common. That is $75,000 gone in one day. Good day, sir!

>>55417115
But there is the crazy taxes though

>>55417145
Hideous.
And also ugly.

>taxes

Yea, but my job has cool shit like good healthcare benefits and matched 401k contributions. It’s really hard to complain about work when I’m in my goddamn underwear all day, in my own house

>>55417180
>healthcare benefits
>401k contributions
Is this what wagies have to show for?

>>55417104
>Bought 2010 civic 2 years ago for €3800
>Put 50k km
>Zero issues
>3 oil/filter changes
>2 air filters
>2 cabin filters
>4 tyres
>2 headlights,2 parking lights, 1 rear break
>4 brake pads.
>Installed pioneer radio
>Installed roofrack for surfboard

The second I bought it I put the tyres on and serviced. Car runs perfectly. Saving is eastly without a car payment

>>55417104
>My car payment is $0/month
OK burgerfriend, what's the catch? Why do you have a $0 "payment"??? You don't actually own the car, do you?

>>55417104
By maintenance do you mean gas or insurance? Changing your oil 2-3 times a year does not cost 1200 a year

>>55417161

>>55417170
We'll see, I wouldn't buy it if I couldn't afford it.

>>55417104
I'm a bit depressed about the car thing I keep saving up for one with OBAYC and their nfts, but getting one and then paying even more for maintenance is still fucking expensive, plus it should be a used car, ngmi

>>55417115
I love how atheists in californians are just hedonist worms and everybody laughs at them kek

I drive an old Acura CL
>what a piece of shit, enjoy that tranny explo-
It's a 6spd
>nice car, bro

something big is cooking, big ct people behind this

>>55417104
You don't need to change the oil every 2 weeks sweetie

>>55417104
Your beater is about to shit the bed or you don’t know how to do your own maintenance if you speed $100/month
