    Ok so here is the deal with my life, I need a car in order to travel to school. Now lets get to the foundation of my situation. I have over 600 in the bank, 2-300 in paypal that makes it around 900. I need at least $3-4k very soon in order to purchase a vehicle. Here is what I own online, I own mvzr.com which is pr3 and a paid directory recently listed in dmoz, I get a few submissions a month but not enough to get my car in time. I also own webmasterearth forum which has over 1k users 40% being spammers and it is pagerank 4. I have other domains handy with content etc which would sell for 50-100$ in the condition they are in right now. Now that you understand my situation, what is your opinion on what I should do?
    Thanks for the help in advance

    If you are willing to give up your sites and domains for a car, then sell those sites and domains in the B/S/T section of DP. That's an easy decision to make. :D

    Take out a loan instead. You sell the sites you cut off your online income whatever that may be.

    A $3000 will cost you jack all in interest.

    Get a loan. Do not sell your sites. If it is your only source of income, you will have a problem when you need to buy/rent a house.

    i agree this you do not have many options, just decide on which is more essential, your websites or car.

    Don't sell your income.
    Buy a scooter or motorbike instead, or even better - a bicycle.
