Wohoo! It's MINE! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sent the final payment in on the truck yesterday

I didn't pay a lot for it, but at the time I bought it, fuel was crazy high, my Z71 was sucking my account dry (almost $100 some weeks for gas!), and my wife and I were looking for a house. I could have paid cash, but didn't want to touch the home down payment money, so I financed it. SHOULD have been paid for by december (usually get a small, decent Christmas bonus every year) but instead I got ****canned the day before Thanksgiving.

It took a good bit longer than I wanted and I had to pay a few hundred extra bucks for it, but my wife and I are back to NO car payments

Just thought I'd share

Congratulations..Man, that is a great feeling!!

67ChevyRedneck · 07-21-2009, 12:27 AM

Yeah, it does feel good!

And we also got delayed on the house thing, but that worked out too a few months ago

(and it was a damn good thing I didn't use my money on the truck... cause we needed it!)

Congrads....now use that money to modify it.

After buying the wifey a nice gift!!

congratulations on the pay off.....great feeling not to have those car payments.
and by the way every time I buy the wifey an appliance as a gift......I get a frying pan on the side of the head

You know why brides wear white at the wedding?

So the dishwasher matches the rest of the appliances.

What if they're stainless steel?

Congrats on the new dishwasher!

Oops, I meant on the truck being free & clear... Well both I guess.

staple tin cans to it ...... and tell her to quit whining hahahahaha
sorry.. i had to

My '83 dishwasher just flat out quit working. I had to pick up a new '09 to replace it. The old '83 model made a lot of whining noises and I got tired of listening to them. So I got a new '09 model, $500 (after discounts) well spent! Now if I can only finish painting the lower cabinets around where it's supposed to go, maybe I can install it
