I'm looking for a bit of guidance here...
Have most folks here pretty much just absorbed the high payments on their truck, or did most put down a large downpayment? I'm very tempted to purchase, but am having a case of the doubts now that I understand what that payment looks like... and for how long I might have that payment.
Maybe it isn't really a big deal... it just seems like a vehicle payment of $450-$500/month for 7 years is absurd. Could pay the truck off earlier, most likely, but haven't been saving money (instead I've been fixing up an older truck that I should have just sold).
Lessons learned...
