    she chose you without a car, what are you worrying about? what is it that makes you think she is in this for a nice car in the 1st place?

    Love is all you need. She should understand that you all cannot afford a car right now and accept that for what it is. I'm sure her love for you is stronger than any material items that you could ever buy, or it should be at least.

    What about her? Does she own her own car? Can you all share a car?

    Or what about a clunker? My brothers girlfriend just bought a pretty decent car for only $300. It runs great and looks ok, what matters is that it get's her back and forth to work and belly dancing class..

    I went to an auction for my car and got a sweet ride for a really nice price. Does it have to be new or is used ok with you?

    Depending on your age... If you're under 18 and engaged thats BAD (shouldn't be engaged)... If you're OVER 18 and can't afford a car its time for you to get off your ass and go work at subway or something and do the online stuff on the side because obviously it isn't working for you...

    I only own 2 cars right now :(

    '68 Mustang
    '07 Civic Hybrid

    Well life doesn't go as planned. I know that extremely too well. I didn't graduate from high school at 18 years old as I had planned when I was younger. If in fact it took me 2 years after that to finally get my life back on track, but eventually it happened.

    The point is, life takes turns that you don't expect. Either you were irresponsible with money or you just couldn't afford to save up because of other things that came up. So you don't own a car yet, no big deal. My parents were homeless at one point but that didn't stop them.

    Random question: I tried posting a thread elsewhere and it didn't show up. Has anyone had this problem or is DP just being buggy?

    Only?

    Any more would be a burden on the environment. I can understand having a sweet hobby car like the 68' stang and a everyday driving car like the nice Hybrid props on an eco-friendly car btw.. But anymore, unless for the wife or family just becomes excesive. IMO

    The less the better as far as I'm concerned. Better for the environment and better for your wallett.

    I really miss being in Boston and not having to own a car, I LOVED that I could take the subway anywhere I wanted and if the subway didn't go there, a bus or my feet or my bicycle did..

    Now that I am in Missouri again a car is a must have if I am to get back and forth to work and other activities.
