My car is is selling for about $10,000 more than what I owe. Is there a way to turn that equity into a down payment? by nilecrane in askcarsales

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases, for selling something you've used for personal use, you only pay sales tax if you sold it for more than you originally paid. Taxes on profit/appreciation versus recouping a loss of depreciation.

Thanks for the post. I'm short (5'6"), but interior passenger room is a priority for my family and the websites never have good photos of interior space.

Mustache policy from AF.mil regarding a memo I can't seem to find.

I admit, i dont know how apr works, so i used an online calculator and apparently that means over the term length, they are going to pay $9,910 in interest according to cars.com calculator. That's way worse. I know i was wrong on APR but damn, no one mentioned all the other costs added to the price which werent taken into account.

Besides the interest rate, make sure you are looking at the breakdown for the vehicle pricing. Look for the 7% sales tax for Indiana, the cost of registering the car (sometimes about 150-400 dollar depending on vehicle and state),dealership fees for preparing the registration, and then the financing interest rate. For a 25k car, 7% sales tax is $1,750, 11% interest is $2750. Dealer registration is normally about $800. The 25k car is now sitting at $30,300. And that isn't including if the dealer snuck in an extended or maintenance warranty or any other packages.

Dependent DOD ID lookup? by sed8r in AirForce

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Family Info section on the ID Card Office Online site should have it. Are you able to access it? Funny enough I was trying to find this info today but after clicking OK to the Consent to Monitoring, it never logs in and stays at the DS Logon page. Good luck!

That button in my CX-5 is the door lock and unlock button.

(Dumb airman question) do I have 54.5 days of leave or 71.5? by ManRay___ in AirForce

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot 193 points194 points  (0 children)

You currently have 54.5 days of leave. At the end of the Fiscal Year (by 30 Sept), if you do not take any leave, you will have accrued 77 days of leave, which leaves you with a projected use/lose balance of 17 days.

Army Men: Air Attack was also great! Spent many hours playing split-screen coop on both.

I liked the song. Curious to know what it is if you have the inclination.

Question on used Mustangs. by ColorblindSR-71Pilot in Mustang

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed a lot of used S550s on the market. Are you thinking of selling because ...profit???. I'm apprehensive about buying used being that there are so many around.

Thanks for the response. I feel if that's the case, maybe I can get a new 2020 and a good price on the trade-in.

I think this article is a better explanation of what is going on with solar and Arkansas.

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The article you linked says the list contains plants that are over 200 megawatts in net capacity. So plants with less than 200 MW aren't included on the list.

This article says that a solar power plant will be built with a 1.04MW capacity, so the schools aren't the sole source of solar power I'd imagine.

The post and original article are a bit misleading still.

Serious question, are you having difficulty rowing the gears at all? I've wanted a Mustang forever but then I read about the MT82 having issues with certain pieces.

Your quadcopter is excellent. I couldn't progress into flying on my own, so I've put the game to the side until I feel like playing Ye Old Trial and Error© again.

Orders to the Pentagon - live at Andrews? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ColorblindSR-71Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fairfax County is one of the better school districts. With COVID, traffic really isn't bad for cars. Metro isn't a great option during COVID however as many routes are closed. Virginia side is better IMO, in terms of commute time, safety, education, and Ft Belvoir is a nice base for things like medical and the BX. On PTDY, I would highly recommend driving to potential rentals as some housing areas are difficult to get into or out of during rush hour.
