So I payed off my truck. Let the extreme modding begin. First thing first. I have been wanting to get rid of my stock exhaust for a long time. It sounds like someone is blowing through a straw.

Yeah but I spend $9000 to pay it off instead of buying a new one. I decided I didn't want the payment anymore.

Well I sold my 1993 RX7 to buy a new FJ but I decided I might want to be able to move out. I could have bought the new car and moved out but I wouldn't be able to save any money. So I'll keep my truck till it blows and by then I should have money for a nice down on something new.

Also I will be buying my friends 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD and having that as my race/gas saver(yeah right)car. It needs new valve seals and a clutch but he only wants $1500 for it.

You can pay more a month or if you have the money like I did then I just wrote them a check for how much I owed.

Well if I used my money on a new FJ like I was originally going to do then I would be able to say that in 6 years.

Nice man! It's great having no car payments. I sold my last car outright and the extra money I had after paying that loan let me pay for my truck with cash. It's the only way to roll.
