I kind of really want one to play my catalogue of Game Boy Advance and Game Boy games. Seems like the best way to play them as well.

Mine is $439.50 a month. Have a 5-year term on it, but I'm angling to pay it off in three.

CoL where I am is too high to allow me to pay of sooner unfortunately.
That and wedding expenses.
What kind of car you got? I'm guessing your costs are in US.

2 years into a 5 year term, mine'll be paid off by the end of the year.

Want to say I'd enjoy getting the extra money per month back in my account but I'm likely just gotta throw it in a savings account for a year or two then buy an Ariya

It's a 2014 Honda CRV that I bought used in 2020. Sticker price was $17,000, but after purchasing extended warranty (which paid for itself after having to replace the starter and timing chain), taxes and shit, was $22,000 all in. Canadian money.

That's not too bad at all. CRVs are great, I drive an older one at work sometimes.
I'm in a 22 Compass, and unfortunately some of my old loan rolled over into the new one.
Unavoidable though. Credit building loans are predatory.

Car 1: 29% interest
Traded fir Car 2 at 19%
Traded for this one at 3%

I remember buying my first new car for $15k and the payments were $215.

Hearing now that the average payment is close to $700 is so nutty.

I paid it off back in 2017, so nice not to have a car payment.

Yeah I want an Ariya in the worst way but they start at like 43k and I'd probably want a better model. Throwing 43k into a calculator with 5% sales tax and 5% loan interest you're looking at just over $800/month. Figure $200/month for comprehensive on it and the car costs basically what I pay in rent. Absolutely insane.

Don't you just love negative equity? I like the interior styling of the new Compass. They're at least trying to homogenize it all, and it looks like the Grand Cherokee. I don't love the engine in those, though.

I'm not totally familiar with that device. I've heard of it but never looked into it. It's one that plays your actual cartridges, correct?

Why not get something like the Retroid Pocket 3+ that lets you play backups of your games (ROMs) and will play from the Atari up to Dreamcast flawless (with some PS2 and Gamecube playable) It's only 150 bucks.
https://www.goretroid.com/collections/frontpage/products/retroid-pocket-3-handheld-retro-gaming-system-1?variant=43622652608736

I love my 3+ and spent the weekend playing some DS games on it.

My only complaint so far is there aren't enough heat vents in the back compartment. The back passenger windows frost up like a mother fucker.

Damn yall pay a lot for your cars. My 2015 Altima was like $17k I think and my payment was $201. Crazy.

Anyway, that device looks cool TC. Please make a review topic if you get it and let us know what you think.

I mean there's a shit ton of factors that go into the payment. Sales tax, interest rate, down payment, trade in, loan term, etc. Card is also Canadian so that's like ~$324 US at the current rate.

When I bought my '18 Altima I lived in a county with 7% sales tax, didn't make a down payment as I had just spent money paying off my last car (rip no gap insurance), 5% interest rate, etc etc. My out-the-door cost was like 21-22k which ends up being a ~$410 US monthly payment for a 5-year term.

I'm not even sure how you'd get a $201 monthly payment for 17k without a sizeable down-payment/trade-in or a decent down-payment/trade-in and a 6 year term.

Meanwhile, I had all the bells and whistles on my term loan because I could afford to. Gap insurance, platinum 2-year extended warranty, and a sub 7% fixed interest rate. I didn't have a down payment or a trade in, because the transmission in my car broke the week before I bought this. Ended up selling it for $1,000, which apparently was a steal considering people really love the Chevy Impala.

Maybe if you have an insane rate, yeah. At 5% over 5 years you could just toss the money into like any index fund and make back twice the interest from your payments when you pull the money at the end.

In my experience, the universe rewards you for paying off your car by making several very expensive parts break within a month.

First you have to make enough money where you can shrug off 5% interest in an index fund.

I'm not super aggressive with my asset management, so I'm perfectly happy to let my funds sit and percolate while slowly generating interest over time.
