Man, I'm seeing everyone getting new cars. Looks like it's time for me to claim bankruptcy and order a new M3

Didn't you just buy a new (to you) car? Or do you need that new car smell? I think there's a spray that does that.

Stop! Do not get caught up with keeping up with the Jones’s. If you’re broke, do not get a new car because. Be financially responsible now. No need to go into debt and screw up your credit because you want a new car. You’ll thank me later. Get set financially. Fuck the Jones’s.

I'm not that dumb . If I was, I would've taken a loan out on this 2013 BMW M3 that the selling dealer of my 540 has listed for $37k. It's only got 22k miles though. I would've brought a house also

I don't think I'll finance my next car unless the rate is below 3.9% or something. In my logic, if you don't have cash laying around for a car, don't buy it

All my battery version were 12 years old. The hard wire ones from day one, 26 years ago.

Despite being from the same company, all the replacement have different flanges and different locking system, let alone the distance between to wholes

Just noticed that while they all have bilingual packaging, for the wires one, one is predominant French while the other one is predominant English... Both from Home Depot on the same order!!!

Booked a family trip to Destin, FL first week in August. Will be there for 7 days.

Been looking at flights to VPS, straight up ridiculous how high the prices are.

Check Pensacola or Panama City airports?

Maybe there are seasonal reductions in flights impacting those prices.

Hey Rick, I have and they are more expensive. I will keep an eye out. I am using a google flight tracker for a few flights I am interested in to see if there will be a change in price...hopefully lower closer to our trip.

Thanks!
