How I did it: I completed my Masters and upon completion my Dad helped me put a down payment on a new vehicle! I have a very small percentage on loan and am paying it off monthly. I put the down payment towards the car and not towards my student loan as the the student loan is with the government and there is more leeway with payments. Car loans have less leeway and get expensive WAY too fast. Read how I did it…

How I did it: My dad and I went shopping in Truro, NS. We went to I don't know how many places looking, until we ended up at Blaikies Dodge Chrysler. I saw this 2003 Ford Focus LX and I just knew that it was the car for me. Read how I did it…
How I did it: It only cost me $1000. It's a reliable car and I am glad to have it, but I wish it were something a little ... HOTTER! My car is a boy. His name is Lucy. Read how I did it…

I would love it if one day in the near future I can buy my own car. That’d be a great way to show people that I can do it on my own.
laurennorder is okay
I guess the title says enough. I’ll probably get my P’s in September and I’d like to have something of my own to drive. Something I can stick tacky bumper stickers on and vacuum and clean until my heart’s content. The job should probably come first though.. haha
Buying my own car was so worth it! I bought a 96 comaro with a convertible for a very good price. It makes you feel accomplished ;)
Sunshine is homeschooling Toddler.
I went to Boot Camp. Washed out after 9 weeks. Got my paycheck. Bought a car. A little Renault for $500 cash. No reverse, no emergency brake, but it worked. I was even able to deliver pizzas for Pizza Hut for several months. Got a new battery installed by a friend of a co-worker and it was done wrong. The belt kept slicing wires, causing fuses to blow. Eventually the engine caught fire and I had to ditch it.
But I bought a car!!
It’s been a long and tedious road from my place to work, but now I’m going to be doing it in my own car, which will save me time, energy and, yes, money!
The car itself is non brilliant. An old Hyundai Accent with too much mileage for its own good and a rusty mechanic, but it runs smoothly and it’s had a few repairs recently, so all that had to go wrong already did and the engine is still good. I didn’t pay much and it’s only until I can get something better, but still, it’s a nice improvement on my bus card… And I can finally go see my friends on my own!
i love my car and i feel so proud of myself knowing that its mine and i own it and i paid for it and everything!
