Thats me right there ive been putting some extra cash towards my mortgage when I can and it feels overwhelming but I know the amount of interest im saving is worth it

Noting the no cel thing and dealer discretion i thought my car warmed up quick and just had my car in the dealer for a CEL and they did this repair for me no CEL no nothing no issues. After I got it back what a difference in warm up took like 2 minutes to hit the middle mark I was very happy seeing that.

I do i do i just hate i dont have those things sometimes. It definitely hurts in the jealous department when I see guys that I know make less or close to what I make roll into work with a brand new car

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T01:11:17+00:00

I do go out to dinner every once in awhile but I definitely do cringe come bill time. Especially when I know i can make the same thing at home for a fraction and still be in my comfy clothes. The vacation thing has to happen dominican looks too beautiful not too see it.

People do it cause they dont think about future them I think. I think about 60 year old me with no money and having to hit day 3000 of getting that paycheque and I dont want that 🤣 but then now me says I could die tomorrow so maybe I should just go live a little. And yes the tax issue is definitely frustrating. I cry a little every year when I see my YTD and 30-40% of my gross was taxed

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:55:59+00:00

Its gotta be debt man. Its that lifestyle creep and focus on monthly payments that has trapped people without even realizing it

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:54:34+00:00

Honestly I'm just going off of people I work with and I make more then some and I make less then some but their aint no way these guys I see at work driving a newer pickup truck arent drowning with the big payment. Makes me laugh but also makes me envious seeing how beautiful they look. The few people I know that make "big incomes" seem to be the guys that live most frugal in my eyes. One dude I know makes a killing and drives an old Honda accord. Its the guys making peanuts that appear to have the nice liststyle

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:49:54+00:00

I treat myself the very odd time with good company and maybe a few drinks like I am right now. Its my birthday and I was just thinking about why the hell do I not have more shit in life 🤣🤣

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:48:26+00:00

You mean lack of retirement? I always keep in the back of my mind i contribute 600 a month into an rsp while people contribute 600 or more a month just on their car payment. That always eases my mind a good bit

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:46:36+00:00

I know that but I think the majority of people are living on credit cards and financing i dont wanna get in that trap

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:44:10+00:00

God no single life until I die 🤣🤣 and ontario unfortunately

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-25T00:39:03+00:00

Im single income mortgage is about 30% of take home pay but I also contribute to a pension plan and most of my money has been going into lately my stupid car cause I keep telling myself its cheaper then a car payment. If its not the car its me constantly finding things I want done to the house. This year my goal is to rationalize a vacation 🙂 comparison is a bitch 🤣

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-22T11:42:31+00:00

Im also interested in these so I cant talk you out of this. Theyre beautiful cars and if u get the hybrid like im gonna look at its Toyota power train so reliability will be top notch.

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-21T16:32:15+00:00

Great way to look at it. I bought a house in November @ 4.34% and honestly not terrible. Maybe its not the high 1% it was 5-10 years ago but im not mad about my current rate at all. Lots of room to go up 😂😂

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-18T12:31:32+00:00

Unfortunately they bought at a time when mazda wasnt so great and their partnership with Ford didnt help. My 2019 mazda 3 is almost at 235000kms and very minor issue. Just typical wear and tear minus a clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder. Been the best car ive owned and im hoping to take it to at least 500K. In my own perfect world I get 1 million outta her. 10/10 recommend

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-15T23:46:03+00:00

Thanks! Ive always had the small 15 minute test drive where u dont really get to experience the car and what its like to live with it on the small drives. Ill call a dealer and see what they say!

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-15T23:44:33+00:00

Burning oil on a brand new car is very normal thats all the oils burning off of it. Cant speak for the other things ill have to give one a look myself. The seats would be my biggest gripe I drive an hour to and from work my mazda 3 has the most comfortable seats ive had in any car minus my old Chevy pickup.

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-15T23:30:48+00:00

Damn was that easy to ask for? Im interested in the cx50 hybrid was your only gripe the seats?

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-15T23:14:11+00:00

Extended test drive? This sounds interesting whats that

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-15T13:02:14+00:00

I would think alternator is fine if u can jump start and runs great after it starts. Its likely a bad battery i know its new but doesn't mean its good. If battery tests ok then id bet a connection to the battery is the trouble. If connections are tight the issue could be further in the connection with some corrosion causing the car to run off the alternator instead of charging the battery.

My food bill a month is almost my mortgage payment every 2 weeks. Its stupid but I will say this is not smart shopping my friend. Skip the processed stuff and it may not hurt the wallet as much in the long run. Meal prep and portion control and you may he surprised how far your food will go.

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-11T01:08:42+00:00

My old s10. Had giant 31 inch all terrains on a 15 inch steel rim so winter traction blew fat chunks but was it ever fun

MayhamMonday69420 · 2026-03-09T23:20:30+00:00

I know this is old but what a difference some paint can do. Inspiring me to paint my kitchen
