SOLD my 07 GT

[Bens4vcobra]

Well I officially became a member of the Dave Ramsey cult after I sold my 07 GT a couple of days ago. I've been trying to sell it for a few months now, finally got a buyer who wasn't a complete flake. He had cash in hand. I probably could've gotten a tad more for it had I held out but with everyone freakin out over gas prices I thought it was a good idea to unload it now because there was a good chance I'd still have it months from now. I don't regret it one bit, even though I loved the car. I'll be tinkering with my '86 T-top car while paying off the rest of my debt. Once that's done, I'll probably get back into a bit newer Stang with cash and start "living like no one else." I will never again go back to the land of car payments. It's nice to drive something that isn't attatched to feelings of guilt.

Congrats man, i remember your thread about where to list the car. Pics of the t-top? I really like those cars.

 

[Bens4vcobra]

thanks. no pics yet, i do need to get take some though. unfortunately the previous owner put some kind of aftermarket side skirts and what appears to be a cervinis stalker rear bumper on it. i'm currently trying to track down a 85/86 gt bumper and i'll have to have the drill holes filled left from the side skirts.

Don't knock it, it's an awesome cult. I'm proud of you :beer: It sucked at the beginning, but following those rules has got me where I am right now. Keep at it! You'll be way better off in the end.

I'm very proud of it, thanks for the encouragement. It's difficult keeping things on the down low, friends and family are starting to suspect something's up, especially after selling the car i practically just bought.

I listen to Ramsey almost every day. I bought my truck right before I started listening or I wouldn't have bought it. Other than my house it is the only thing I owe on. Instead of selling it I'm just going to work on paying it off asap. Good luck on your journey.

Good for you man, if you stick with it, it will be worth it.

 

[Bens4vcobra]

Thanks for the encouragement guys. If 'car guys' can learn self control and short term sacrifice than anybody can.
