Also, for the sake of bean counting ...

A $0/mo payment because someone paid up front for their ride doesn't mean that a person pays $0/mo for their truck.

Let's say hypothetically that I paid $40K cash for the HyHoe a year and three months ago, and I sold her for $34k. Although I had no payments to make, $6000/15mo = $400, which was my de facto monthly purchase cost towards the truck, but the only difference is that I paid all those payments up front.

Interest was still being earned through the investment of that $6000 by whomever received it, and paid by me in the form of me not earning interest on that money.

This is to again emphasize how even a $0/mo payment on its own, really is no indicator as to real cost, but is confined to cash flow considerations.

Time for coffee ...

What if I won it or it was given to me? :adminpower:

^Yup! Both of our car payments combined doesn't even equal our mortgage. Sometimes, I wish we didn't like the shiny things so much though, I wish he could get as interested in couches, carpet and furniture, as he is in boats, trucks and atv's. Oh well, at least we play hard.

Technically I pay nothing on mine because I paid cash. I took a small signature loan on it though but its only $200 a month for 36 months which I will pay off in about 18 months probably.

72 months, 2% interest, no money down, 2011 Tahoe LT with a 52K sticker.

I have a GM Employee discount and bought a 2011 in December 2011. I won't mention my exact payment for it might make you hate yours, but its less than 600.
