Well I finally did it..

5 Years of payments finally DONE! Paid my final payment last week! Damn does it feel good to have the debt off my shoulders!

The Day I brought her home:



The Day I paid her off:



Seems like I've been through hell and back job wise with a couple of shaky moments at times, but I don't ever regret any moment that her and I have been through. I'm glad I can finally say she's mine for Life. First step into growing up as you can say. Learned a lot about finacial responsibility with having a payment in general. Now to move onto bigger and better things Mod wise haha.

Also Thanks to you guys/gals on the Forum who made me spend money over the years on the truck! She'd still be stock if it wasn't for RF lol.

Truck looks good the way it is.

Don't get carried away with BIGGER Mods, think on it before doing anything and then think on it some more.

It is a great feeling when you make that last payment. I bought my 07 sport second hand with 40000 km on her. I made double payments and triple payments a couple times. and my bonuses at work came at a perfect time..... 11 months and I had the 15k paid off. best feeling ever. and my parents were so proud of me for paying my truck off in less than a year. .... now almost time to move on to a 150 ecoboost.

So Lazler, enjoy that feeling, and use next months "payment" to buy yourself a congrats present for your accomplishment... I sudgest some beer.... a lot of beer lol

Congrats!! same as my old one wheels/color/engine except yours is extended. I had a 5 year loan. coulda paid it off in 2. But still paid it off in 4. I remember the day i walked in to te bank with the last 800. It is a good feeling. Now you should have the extra cash to go find you a wrecked 4x4 at the JY and convert it. Clean truck though.
