8s are garbage..
How did you get the money for the 8? Legally, you weren't old enough to sign for a loan?

Are you in school? Or working? Banks don't give loans because you want something.
Whats the interest rate?

Yeah I have almost 30 hours a week and only 6 credit hours at technical school.
9% interest with a 5 year loan. It sucks having a 5 year loan but thats the only way I can afford it. I am still living with my folks though.

9% holy $hit.. Do you make at least double payments? Especially if you live with the folks rent free.
So after going to school you go to work? Do you work on a farm with animals?

SRSLY?
9% APR loan + living with your parents.
Don't you think you might be living beyond your means right now?

Are you able to pay for your own gas? I will never understand kids spending such a high percentage of their income on a car they can't even afford to enjoy.

Completely agree... What were you thinking??? Why would you live car poor?
This brings me back to my question since you have to ask your parents for date money.. Do you work at a farm?

Believe it or not this is actually a very important question. My thing is that if he works on a farm I doubt he would be asking for date money.

If he worked on a farm he would be smart enough to not pay 9% interest on a car.

So, AVL is that true?? You don't need date money due to your time you spend on a farm.
