And the last car I drooled over was some crazy Mercedes SUV WWII Jeep looking thing that was like 90K. I love that thing.

Well I don't know about other people's budgets - perhaps 20K is perfectly affordable for a car- but sadly, not in my world

I did, however, just see an amazing car while watching the PBS show History Detectives:



A sunbeam Alpine - unfortunately there are only like 200 or something - so oh well

I don't even understand what a 20k car means. What does that payment translate to ? Like 300 a month or something ? Forgive me, I am silly when it come to this. I paid off my vehicle a long time ago, so I don't know what the payment was. 200 a month maybe ?

well, I have a 2001 maxima that was about 15,000 and my payment is 325 per month so I'm assuming 21k would be much more than that. But if you got a new car and were able to negotiate a 0% interest that it would be quite a bit cheaper.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.
