I've got four payments left! Anyone with less? Soon I will be able to afford some serious mods. First off I want to get the body paint touched-up. Followed by a full detail job. Then perhaps a new brake kit, plugs/wires, and new intake. Then a new pair of Nikes to sport around town. New rims? Hmmmmm..........

I've been paying between $600 -$700/month to get mine paid off sooner. Still have about $6K to go. I made payment 28 in May.
Congrats on the payoff!
For kicks I would go with a pair of Air Flight '89 Retros or wait for the Jordan XVII low in black/gator/bronze to come out in the fall!

I meant a pair of new Nikes for my CSVT; but you knew that, right? Wink wink!

Slow Lane paid cash in Oct. 99. Don't like payments of any kind. No money now, though - two kids in university at the same time. Taco Bell is beginning to look like a luxury night out. :p

I drive slow for longest life and best gas milage. (28.48 MPG avg at 26K miles)
