> Umm…wrong:Idiots if u had read the thread, its not that I didnt have the money to pay for the ticket due to my income, it was that it was sprung on me last minute, and I had not saved for it due to thinking it was taken care of. Thank u. I do not try to buy cars I cannot afford. I take home around $500 a wk…with only $600 a month in bills…do the math.

I ‘take home’ 1100-2200 a week depending on hours, and would not make the decision that you just did.

You’re young-enjoy the cars that you can’t afford while you can. You’ll figure it out eventually, I did.

In regards to your ticket, well, if you can’t pay out 300 dollars at a moment’s notice for an expense, that’s yet another reason that you can’t afford a higher car payment and a car that costs more to maintain.

Kids+decent credit=disaster.
