I have to know the secret!

[CodeB4U]

Cars have always been my life, or better yet IS my life. Every since my dad taking me street racing i been hooked.

I've had a job ever since i was 17-19 working on cars just to support my addiction on working on mine. Still living with parents. I had 3 cars at that time...one was the second fastest car in H.S. Next to a rich boy with a brand new WS6 trans am with nitrous and lots of other goodies.

So at 20 i decided to buy a 2 story house (yes i know i tried to convince her she's not going to like it after a year) with my newly wife that i dated since H.S.

19-25 my current age...i have worked for a chevy dealership. On the service side because again...i work on other ppl cars to only support my addiction on working on mine...but i now have 2 sons, a wife, a 200k home , 4 cars (Chevy Tahoe, Chevy LTZ Malibu, SS S-10, Cobalt SS) soon to be three because I'm selling the Cobalt.

My and my wife bring home good money, it's the only reason why we are where we are. Plus I'm not a dumbass, i don't go around getting shit i can't pay for. Like more retards that are in debt for ridiculous things.

So yeah, i got a Tahoe...only because my wife wanted a car that the kids can fit when we drive around or go on trips....yet the only trips we have done with it is to the casino's in Louisiana...

My parents worked hard and ran a lot of businesses. Most of theirs involved cars, so they dealt with the dealerships all the time, therefore we're able to get better prices on our cars. I don't own 20 high-class cars like some kids, I love my one and only Tahoe just fine. Actually, I even have a 2002 Tahoe I love to drive sometimes. Reminds me of the old days. :]

I'm also getting a job this summer to help pay my parents back for my car, completely voluntary.

my parents also worked their asses off their whole lives to provide our family with a comfortable lifestyle. I am not one of those spoiled rich kids who gets every single thing they want and i am grateful that my parents raised me that way. I got into a good college and they rewarded me with this tahoe. They do take care of me and i am so grateful that they raised me right and with a work ethic because now that i am 18 i am seeing a glimpse of the real world and the trouble i can get myself into(debt, girls, etc.) if i am not careful.
On a side note: anyone from the dallas fort worth highland park area?
I live in cali right now but will be going to school at SMU in dallas and i move in July 5th.

 

[zach2011]

^^ same here. i don't get whatever i ask for, and i had to work like you wouldn't believe last summer to earn my tahoe. not to mention, had to keep my grades all the way up.
and i still feel spoiled for having it, so like i said, i'm going to use my work money to pay my parents back for my tahoe a little. they don't know yet, it's a surprise.

[turboeclips]

Here is my speel...
I'm 28 even though most people think I look about 18.

I could go on and on with my story to put me where I am right now, but I will summarize it.

1. Good work ethic, been working since 16.
2. Good saving habits. (able to give big downpayments)
3. Educate your self at something you like and pays good.
4. Currently good job that pays well and offers tons of OT, so then it pays even better

i'm 22 and my car story starts out with a 95 taurus that i got for free as a graduation present. When the tranny blew on that, i got a loan from b.o.d.(bank of dad) for a 2001 taurus which after 6 months i traded for my 02 grand prix. Once again, another loan from b.o.d. one year later i had that paid in full and 1 1/2 years later i got a real loan for my 04 tahoe. anything aftermarket on either was paid for and there's really no other outstanding debt. if i went around putting everything on a credit card like some people my age i imagine there would be 18's and a full exhaust on my grand prix and some 22's on my tahoe. someday....

My parrents have paid for my truck and 65. They also paid for all the mods done to them. I had a choice of either them buying me a new truck or buying me a house and I chose the house for some stupid reason. I pay for my bike though.

I also had a 98 altima that they bought me as a DD in HS.

 

[Shaggy]

As you can see, most of it started with parents. I had alot of help from mine, but not really for the cars. I only own 2 right now, the truck and the tahoe. Back in 1995, my parents bought a 95 single cab silvy for me. I had it for 3 yrs, then was a hand me down to my brother. 2 yrs later, I was able to trade it in for my first owned truck that I paid for myself. From there, I did all the truck/hoe paying on my own. The 95 silvy($5000) helped me get the kick start I needed. Thanks mom and dad

 

[Rich2007Z71]

Be sure to thank Mom and Dad for their kindness. I have had to work for everything my whole life, not as fortunate as others, but not complaining. Saved money when I was younger, lived with parents until I was 25, got married and used the money as a down payment on a house. I keep my vehicles for an average of 8-12 years and try to get low financing - really want to replace my wife's vehicle at 0% but all this shit with GM really worries me. And stay away from the credit cards - they are an easy out but will kill you in the long run. As my late Dad used to say, "If you can't pay cash for something, then you can't afford it." Wise words - had to convince him to get one after mom passed when he was 70! Anyway, enjoy what you got and be thankful for what you got.

 

[jmildoc]

I used my hefty tax return to buy the Yukon. It was more like a Necessity than anything thought with another kid on the way. I wanted a Sierra or a Z71 but wife said it wasnt practical. As for my other cars I was in the military for 5 years so that explains those. Before that I was like the other kids on here where mommy and daddy bought all my cars...Man that was the life... Still waiting on my dad to give up the car he has now (2001 Mustang Bullitt) He is 68 why is he driving that!!!! I had a 1998 Mustang GT when I was home it was his old car when he got the 01... If I only wouldnt have been a bad kid.... So yeah all the lucky kids on here.... you better enjoy it while it lasts!!!
