> [@Motocrossx23](#): > > I’m toying with the idea of just getting one decent vehicle cheap, no car payments and then take the extra funds and pile more money into savings. IIRC, we’re both in similar situations with work/school/life/trying to find a house… I “toyed” with this idea a LOT… but it never worked out haha. If you can pull it off, and live with a car that’s just a “a to b” car, this is by far the best idea for the time being. I just drive too much now to drive anything that’s not somewhat fun. ---

As far as the Prizm goes, the CEL is gone and it’s still getting 35 mpg but its going to need pretty much every suspension component replaced as well as a few engine related issues addressed. When I post it for sale, it’s not going to be a pros/cons sale…it’s going to be a “it DOES have a nice steering wheel, but everything else sucks” sale. ---

For approximately $6800 total you can lease a brand new camry for 2 years from basil toyota. Im sure beck can give you all the details. looks like maintenance comes with it, and the insurance rates for these are low. So, for $6800, you can have a hassle free ownership of a admittedly boring yet nice to drive car. I drove one back from Pittsburgh. its quiet, comfy, and wont cause your blood pressure to rise. ---

I’m “meh” about leasing. It’s practical for me but at the same time I am 100% against contracts and BS. I just paid off all my credit card debt, bills and insurance so that I didn’t owe anyone money. I don’t wanna tie myself to a lease. ---

Thanks for the help guys, but yeah I decided to stop wasting time with this BMW nonsense and bought a truck. Way more practical and reliable, and I can still do burnouts. ---
