also, wun

what does your CV need?

is it a single part or wut?

One piston is fucked. I need to take it to a shop that rebuilds engines and have them tell me why it's fucked. Then based on that, figure out if I can repair it or need to sell it.

yeah you'd think but think about it like this:

put a few hundred bucks on a CC or spend another $4K on a car

even if you do car payments its still more money than just paying off a small amount on a CC




A lot of people make the mistake of thinking a CC is automatically a bad idea or something that poor people use but always paying cash for things can have your bank account looking like your shoe size rather than a significant amount of moola

In the stock market there are guys worth millions that mortgage a 3 or 4 hundred thousand dollar house just because they don't want to take that chunk of money out of the stock market. It looks and feels better to be worth $10,000,000 mil rather than $9,700,000



Also, you have wheels and few other things invested in your car. It wouldn't be the best idea to just give upon the little lady

Was opinion. Does look good but I think different tip would be better.

I don't want to give up on it but if it costs the same as the car, it doesn't make sense.

I can take the wheels off, etc if I need to. With low miles and no other issues, I'd prefer yo keep it if possible.

[shootermcgavin003]

Still cheaper than another plus you know the car.

i'm kinda like this

i love my car so i'd pretty much go all out to get it fixed before I gave up on it

hell if the car was completely trashed i'd still keep it parked in the backyard or some shit...for teh memreez

[Cez★]

fidil LS swap

[theholycow]

I thought the options were:

1. Kourke's CC idea

2. Leave it parked until money is saved up to repair it. (In the meantime, drive the Tracker.)

Most CC these days have 0% apr for 18 months. My gf and I put all of my gas and purchases over $50-75 on a cc and pay it off at the end of the month, every month. I use one of the cards that you earn free nights at motels. I have gotten over $1500 in free rooms over the last 2 years. Using CC in a responsible way is great, most can't do that though.

That's exactly what I do. Mine is just a cash rewards card. Doing that is good for my credit.

Well, that's how I operated until my wife lost her job and I lost my give-a-damn. I kinda ran up a balance for Christmas. I'll pay it off before the 0% intro APR runs out.

[pwtr02ss]

It pays to use credit to your advantage.

[race2c]

Looking good, Korkah.

As to using CC or buying a new car. For me, personally I rarely use cash anymore thus I use my Chase CC, but make sure to still use a monthly budget and pay it off every month. From what I understand the trick is to use it, but ensuring no excessive balances are kept on it. The CC was originally received so I could use it in Canada (no intl transaction fees), has the little chip, and then had the 3 month/$3000 spend = 50000 pts offer (needed a new tv, furniture, etc).

Thus, it could be advantageous for Wan to use a CC, just ensuring that you can pay off the balance during the month. By no means am I a financial advisor though, so take it fwiw.
