How many of you plan on....
 
Keeping your car til its paid off or for good? Do you plan on trading it in?

The plan is to keep it. We'll see how that works.

Always tell myself I am going to keep it until its paid off but I have a sickness, newcaritis.

2003 F250
2004 F150
2006 F150
2009 F150
2010 Raptor
2011 F250
2013 Raptor
2014 Mustang

Actual plan on this one is to pay it off quickly and buy a 2016 F250 so I can keep the Mustang for a weekend car.

If you plan on keeping a car DO NOT daily drive it.

Have a beater to get back and forth to work, get car dings, etc..

And pay it of quickly!
Can't believe people are financing cars for 5-7 years.

Agree. I financed mine for 5 years some people cant pay everything right off.

LMAO...uhhhh.

The "plan" is to save up, throw a s/c on it and keep it. Then buy something else later to keep more miles off.

I don't have many miles and most of my miles are on the wife's truck instead. There were 11,xxx on my car when I got it last February and now there are 15,xxx. Not a bad clip.

It's a car, what's wrong the DD'ing it?

The Joker 01-31-2014 01:21 PM

Thats my plan also GTOphil. Supercharger plus some other upgrades and keep it. I do have a daily driver though and the mustang usually sits in the garage next to the 67.

I plan on keeping mine until it's paid off at least. Once it is paid off I might see if I can find a used 13 boss in good shape, or if there is a new Mach 1 I might look at that. I always said I said I would never sell my old Mach but we see how that worked out. Although with a little one now the wife may make sure this is the last Mustang for a long time

I plan on keeping mine untill the 2015 is available and i dont have to get on a year wait to get one. Talked with the GM next door (Grapevine Ford) he said the line to get one will be stupid.

Yeah, I know the new stang will be nice and highly sought after. However, it is still a mass production car. I believe there will be a slight wait initially (like maybe a month or so), but after that, there should be plenty of them on the lot. The kicker is that consumers will not be buying the new 2015 stangs for up to $6000 off sticker like in previous years.

Dan12GT 01-31-2014 02:18 PM

Paying it off. After which i'll prob get something like a Focus ST for daily use and look at boosting mine.

I may also consider a used GT500 as well but boosted 5.0 is way cheaper of an option and running e85 without trying to be crazy with it should last me a while.

I have the same sickness.

2011 Honda Civic Si
2011 Subaru WRX
2013 Mustang GT
2012 Honda Civic Si
2014 Mustang GT

In that order. lol.

I plan to keep my 5.0 for another three years and then re-evaluate. The 5.0 is currently the best all-around performance vehicle in my price range.

re-rx7 01-31-2014 02:36 PM

I plan on keeping mine. Looking at mid 90's accords for a dailt right now.
