Finally paid off!

I made the last payment on my 2002 dodge thats in my sig on the 15th. I bought the truck Jan 2005 and paid it off Jan 2008. Its a nice feeling, now I can put that money elsewhere!

I have had my frontier paid off for over a year now. Unfortuneately, the price to pay off my truck was getting a gen 2 X for my wife.
When I get my Isuzu paid off this summer, Im planning on trading it in on a full sized. I just dont know what I want.

Congrats,
Now put that same payment amount in the bank for a couple of months for a "Rainy Day Fund".

You'll never miss it.

That, or roll what your car payment would have been into extra principal payments on the mortgage....

Amazing how many years you can knock off with a few extra hundred a month.

I just paid off the 03 that I figured I'd drive forever, but now I'm kicking myself for not having bought a dually...
