Wow. it must be really frustrating that we "just dont get it."
you asked for advice on affording a tahoe at the end of the day the advice given is not what you wanted to hear so you are coming up with things to make it right in your mind.
Your mind was made up before you started this thread imfo.

oh...I see what ya did there
yea ur right my mind was somewhat made up but I think what people don't get is that I didn't say that I'm forsure dead set on getting one asap, it could very well be two years before I do this thread was simply to hear what I should look into doing as far as getting a good price and the best route to go as far as choosing one.. Trust me I get what the people who are saying I shouldn't get one are saying I'm simply questioning them as to why because I'm curious..Obviously if you wanted to do something and people just told you you couldn't you would want to know why and at least find out if theres something you can do about it..

My job will pay many times your income in a year and still wouldn't fathom having two cars at my age. Why? Because I'm in school and have a good paying job offer on the table waiting for me to get an expensive piece of paper.
Apparently. There was no questioning, sounds more like someone wanted to brag to us about possibly having two cars at 18... and I'm not sure why.
His mind was totally made up, I'm not sure why he even bothered. He's just PO'd we're calling him out.

You're not questioning, you're just attempting to give us a reasoning for you being wrong. I'm not giving you any loose ends, I'm saying on your income you can't afford it.
Here's what you can do if you want one: Don't go to college, go get a job, work for a year and get some money, buy the Tahoe with a huge down payment, then go back to college. Sounds responsible, right?
Why would you want to pay for a car over 6 years? There are going to be two new body styles out before you finish your payments

^^^X2. My parents did the same and it helped me build credit at a young age. But I'd definitely stick with one car. Two cars at 17 is kind of absurd unless you are a super baller
x2 I have to agree with Felix on that one...
