How many ppl here live at home and pay outrageous amounts on a vehicle payment and insurance? No help from the parents what so ever. Posting this becuz im looking at picking up an 02 Jetta GLS 1.8T and we did some number figuring and its going to be about 508 bux a month with insurance and loan payment.how about if you post again after you've had the car for a few months and gotten several tickets, when your insurance company tells you that you'll be dropped after another ticket?
i hope you're not trying to get any sympathy, because paying $500+/month (what are you, 17? 18?) at your age for a car is stupid, especially when it's by choice. buy a $1000 car and save yourself a lot of grief -
I work full time, pay rent for my apt. and garage, phone bills, ins. ect. I paid my car off in full right after my test drive. I know my bills arent close to someof my friends that have already started familys but it sucks still.
I like my women like I like my cars, shaved!

before i moved to ND i was paying a lil over 800 a month for car and INS. i knew i had to pay it off b4 i came here though. now i only pay 93 a month for the can INS. which is helping out alot. but in a less then 2 months i am hoping to have another car and i will most likely have car payments. which is gonna suck, but i dont like to buy beaters! and i am not gonna have my gf stranded somewhere with the kid
but living on my own with all bills is ok, i still have a lil money in my pocket. dunno about 508 a month for another car though. i would have to get a night job to afford that :rolleyes: -

I lived out in an apt. for about 6 months last year...bills ate me up (also didnt have the best job) and I couldnt afford shit for my car...even went as far as doing a pracs study just so I could buy EXHAUST!...but now im living at home for a bit just so I can buy the rather expensive parts I want for my car...then its out again for me

I know you guys are older and pay more. I'm used to being raped on insurance i guess. Just 500 seems like a lot a month. Ive always paid my own shit, so o well. Its just part of life i guess. Be about 550 a mont for insurance, car payment, and cell bill. I do live at home. This summer wont be so bad and im only gonna go to college part time here i think. So it wont be THAT bad. i dont know . Just thought id rant.

was going to get a huge bonis because he was in a high danger zone, or something silly like thati haven't heard of that but you do get 150 a month for a combat pay then somtimes a 100 a month more for hazardous area for the whole time your there thats what i got and i think they raised it since i was there i was getting close to 2000 a month tax free and i didn't spend more than a couple hundred a month while i was there except the 500 a month on bills back home i save a lot

spending a year and a half in afghanistan wearing a "shoot me" sign on my back for an 02 jetta sounds like a piss poor trade off to me.
Dont get me wrong I have nothing but respect for our soldiers, I even have family in the service, but I would rather cut off my big toe and fake blindness then fight over there.

Maybe the people over there are also there for pride. Ever come to think of that?
