So, at the twilight of my life and not wanting car payments, I got me this used 1996 Toyota Tercel.

Now, keep in mind I’m a big guy and it’s a sub compact.

I wanted a peppy, super reliable car and no car payments.

Additionally, I wanted super low insurance payments.

I purchased this car for pennies on the dollar and, having added a few modifications such as superior audio speakers, I drive FREE as the wind.

It is so good to be free as the wind.

Great point Joe! If you can drive a beater that works, you can keep the $500 a month you might have spent driving a dream car.

That can go towards savings, or a home, or investments which could make your money grow, if you start early.

Sorry Anoreth. I’m becoming my Mother, LOL!
