TW> Now you are reminding me of my leaner years as money goes. I used to   
   TW> select my Used Cars from the Consumer Reports "Worst Used Car Buy" list   
   TW> because they were in my price range.   
   TW> I also use to  carried a tool box in the car and even had my own tow bar   
   TW> to rescue the disabled vehicle. Later on when things were better I still   
   TW> continued to buy from the "Worst Car List" and instead of making car   
   TW> payments paid off the house in 15 years instead of 30.   
      
   Nothing wrong with that.     
      
   I also send extra money towards principal each month for the house so we will   
   have it paid off early.  It has been awhile since I had a vehicle payment.    
   The last one was my motorcycle, but that has since been paid off.     
      
   I would like to have an extra car again at some point.  Maybe something like a   
   2002 TransAM.. :)
