Default What do you make????

That's right folks. Now that we know what you do for a living, how in the world do you pay for your car? First tell the year and model(GT, v6, etc) regardless if it in your sig. Then tell if its paid off, monthly payments, or if your parents pay for it. Then tell how much you make at your job so we can know how you afford it!

Of course its personal, but none of us have ever met! Nor might we ever, and I'm just curious if I'm paying alot for my car. I'll go first

03 gt 5spd. monthly payments of $395/mon. insurance $255/mon. and I average $1200-$1300 as a server working about 25-30 hours a week.

NEXT!

I make baskets and pretty tapestries in my spare time...

O wait thats not the point of this thread...doh!!

And no im not going to tell you how much I get paid from MT. It would be unethical...

Ill just depart with the fact that I drive a Lexus. And it is my own. And my parents didnt pay for it.

I pay $269.82 a month for my GT. $1200 a year in insurance after some recent changes, and $250 a month on gas. Thankfully I don't have to pay for that, my parents help me out since I'm in school. Only 1 more year of that though.

I make about a grand a month. Sometimes more if I get some overtime.

2002 V6, Premium.
Took a loan out, monthly payments are 172, insurance is 260, though I only have to pay 200...Thanks to my step-mom. Gas can range from 25 a week to 30+. Everything for my car is paid out of my pocket. I work at McDonald's makin' 7.40 an hour, averaging around 1200 a month. That is to say they give me my 40 hour weeks. And if all goes well, I'll get certified(management) shortly and get bumped up to $9 an hour.

Ok, I'll bite also:

I am the Engineering Department Administrator for a local technical college. I make over six figures now. I still live in a trailer while my house is being built (whoo hoo! I can't wait).

My Mustang is paid for and so is my supercharged Xterra.

I don't really know what the insurance is - I'd have to ask the wife (lol). I think I pay about 175 buck for full coverage on both vehicles.

I own an illegal chop shop so I don't buy my cars. Last year I cleared about 300K in just orders alone and probably another 200K in take-off parts.
I have to take a trip out of state tonight to hopefully pick up 6 cars, one of which, is supposed to be a Jack Roush stage 3 car.
Anyone know where I can locate a new Carrara GT or a '93 cobra?

He has to be joking.



Or he's the world's largest moron. Plus, would you drive a couple of Mustangs if you were clearing half a Mil a year - dishonest or not?
