100k miles = I Paid Off My Car Today
March 8th, 2009Woot!

I had been stringing the loan along since I purchased the extended warranty back in ‘06. But, now that the warranty has expired, it’d extremely suck to have a car payment AND repair bills (although, this car has been pretty solid). It was sort-of on a whim (one of those “turn your head the other way and click” sort of things), but I had the money sitting in my savings account. Granted, it was being saved for when we buy a house…but that’s on hold for the moment. I’ll make a good chunk of it back by the time we’re ready to continue the home hunting trek via saving my car payment plus other extra cash. So, in my eyes, it’s a win win! Improves my credit report (less debt), and I’m throwing away less money (not paying interest).
So…meh.
