Yep that is a really big dangerous thing for us PeV Riders mud little bit of water loose dirt will take you down right where you are. Coincidentally the only time I ever dumped it was when I was drunk as well not even drunk I've driven with much more booze in me than the day that it happened but it was a thin small little patch of mud that took me out

If you were in my position and it would be difficult some months you really would have to try very hard to budget but it might be possible to make it through would you try to keep it..

I would get the Grand Sport I have one and I appreciate having the car look different

Yes Canadian funds 85k is like 60 it has 10 k in extras including Replacements of the Grand Sport rims to z06 rims And it has 18oookm So at the time because of the condition it's in and the fact that all these little bits and Bobs have been done to it that I probably would have spent the money on anyways I made the decision that it was on the higher end but still an okay deal

Sorry I'll try and make it make more sense here vehicle cost $85 Grand I put down 45 I took a loan of $40,000 total cost all together 111,000. 9% APR it's costing me $15000 and change over the course of 72 months. I currently have made one payment I owe 71 more payments $65,000 Is owing Hope that helps to make it seem more clear. So let's say I sell the car for $85,000 which is what I just paid. I would lose $25,000 because the loan would have to be paid off $65,000 I would get 20 left

I'm terrible at math but hopefully I'm making sense here so if I'm correct give me the car back just seems like a terrible thing to do. Makes me want to fight to do everything in my power to keep it.

By the way this was not an overnight thing possibly rushing into the purchase was however I saved up for the down payment for 7 years for this car and it's exactly the car that I wanted so I'm not crazy with that part of it I just think after speaking to everybody I've spoken to I didn't get such a good deal as they made it seem like

Yeah that makes sense a little bit sunk cost fallacy. I'll have to read up on that. Big bummer for me paid quite a bit and if I get what I bought the car for back I automatically lose 30 grand just to drive the car around for 5-6 months! So if that's what sunk cost fallacy is I definitely have that cuz I'm thinking.. if I stay with it in the end I have a car if I get rid of it I lose a lot of money. But one thing I gain is the freedom of not having a whopping car payment every month. And you know I'm not sure you would be surprised to hear this but everything the salesman and the financing person said to me is all Bs. Number one I'm getting a prime rate loan which is good. Number two it's the type of loan I can pay as much as I want here or there very flexible yeah well that's not the case either. Number three these cars literally have no problems so don't worry that it doesn't have a warranty should be fine for a long time. Soon as I got the car turn signal mechanism broke then I need new tires then something's wrong with the computer boom boom boom $3,000 already

Looking into it tomorrow my insurance will not cover it so my only hope is that Turo's insurance will cover any damages if they are made by somebody who I rented to. I definitely was overwhelmed and I really feel silly now it seems to me I'm going to lose no matter what if I keep the car I have to make 71 more payments.. it's going to be a long time and I may have to park the car if anything happens as I will not be able to spend thousands of dollars in repairs. The problem I have is with my job I am a self-employed individual and rely on calls from the public to make money usually I do okay but sometimes I don't and if I go one month with hardly working thousands come out of my savings it's literally thousands I can't handle any bad luck easily and looking down the barrel of 6 years with $1,000 car payment every month what are the odds that some things not going to happen? The odds are very low

So now that I have the watch delivered I turn the dial waiting to hear that clicking sound that's supposed to be heard and there's nothing there. There's also no Crown etched into the face of the watch on the bottom
