No car payment, no insurance, no tickets, no stress.

I'd love to be able to take the bus to work, but I live on the opposite side of town. I'd have to leave the house at the ass-crack of dawn, it'd be a two-hour commute, and I'd still be late for work. If gas gets anymore expensive, I'm going to have to look for another job closer to my apartment. Luckily, my car will be paid off this year, so I can get rid of it if I need to.
