Leasing vs buying

[pauldun170]

Generally speaking, the best option is to buy AL\Tiggers Bonneville, immediately sell it for market value and then use the proceeds towards the purchase of a 2-4 year old second hand car and drive it 10 years.

If you have low deductibles just have someone steal your car

I live in a college town and have avoided several accidents and thought, "I wish I was driving the Bonneville..." Blue Book was around $4,000 last I checked.... BTW I have full coverage as well, it's $200 every six months.

Damn....if you don't do it I might have to buy that Bonne. How many miles?

That is a damn clean car for $2k AL

Do NOT go into debt on it. If you happen to have 2k saved up (plus the air fare or gas money for racedoll), then consider AL's offer after talking to him and doing some research on those cars.

Also, get an idea of how much insurance and tags are going to cost you. No reason to go into it blind.

I needed a good post like this. I get all gun ho about stuff like this sometimes. Its the same way with bikes. Like, "mines fucked up, oh I can afford payments... blah blah blah." I would never buy new, such a waste of money.

Honestly, the only vehicle I was looking at was this one. Used, low miles, cheap, could talk them down even more, and..... could haul the bike.
