Message	Don't spend a dime on your vehicle other than maintenance and maybe a sound system (that you could transfer into a nice vehicle) until you're out of school and have a job that pays the bills. If you have a nice car while you're in school, it's a lot of money out of your pocket. Also, you'll worry about parking, getting door dings, getting your car broken into, doing stupid things trying to impress the cheerleaders, etc. Invest the money. Or do the unreasonable thing and buy a Z. I know I regret getting a Z instead of keeping my DD and just saving the rest of the money. True story. I don't know how I'm going to pay for grad school and keep the Z. Someone else will benefit from all the time/money I've put into the Z. ------------ There are 10 types of people in this world: Those who understand binary and those who don't.
