i paid my car off! na-na-na-na-nah!

Since I’m really terrible at keeping up with paperwork and all, I’ve set up everything I can as auto-pay. In my twisted mind, this also frees me up from having to look at mail. (Stupid, I know.) But since it’s tax week and I haven’t done my taxes yet, and I’m feeling very guilty and anxious and heavily burdened, I opened the letter from my auto loan company. And it turns out that at the end of March, I paid off my car!

Yippee-ki-yay, MF!

So I’ll be basking in the luxury of one less monthly payment, until I get around to getting a California drivers license and registering my car here (Texas registration ran out months ago). And then I can sell it.

And I’ll probably go get a SF-appropriate Cooper Mini! :D

hrmm… I remember when SMART was in Europe only. Aren’t they diesel?

They had a cool roadster they were planning on producing.

Congrats! I only have about 7 more years on mine!

P.S. Come to Texas to buy that Mini.

What, no Tesla Roadster?

john – they’ll be in the US for the 2008 model year. i’m not sure what kind of engine options will be available. i was hoping they’d have a hybrid by the time they reached us, but it doesn’t sound likely.

Don’t buy the Mini, or the Smarty Smart Smart car. I have a much better idea of how to allocate your newly-freed funds. Help me pay my student loans.

If not that, i’m with Shannon. Get the Tesla.
