Bye bye, $2,355.49 and hello Title!
January 15, 2009
I think *gulp* I’m gonna do it. Without the title in hand, it’s a bit harder to sell the truck because potential buyers don’t want to wait 7-10 days to complete the paperwork and sale. So I’m going to send my payoff to Toyota. Yipes!
This is half my expense cushion! But it shouldn’t make a real difference; I’d have to pay it over the next six months, regardless of my employment status.
It makes sense if it eases the sale process, I just have cold (spending) feet!
Edit: Did it. Just did it. Whew!
I hope you sell that truck fast! Just out of curiousity, how is your brother getting around?
Gotta do what you gotta do!!

Writing those big checks is tough, my final car payment was over $6000. I had the money saved so it wasn’t a big deal, but that big amount in my savings account was a kind of security blanket that I had to let go. I take it you’ll get the money back when the truck sells?
Hope that makes you feel some relief!
Whew! I hope that trucks sells fast!
I have a similar struggle with my c.c. debt. I want to wait until the last minute to pay it since it’s 0%. That way I can accrue a little more interest and I like seeing the money in my account.

Miss M: Yes, the car sale will at least cover the amount I just paid out, and then some. YAY!
notesfromthefrugaltrenches: As soon as the truck is out of my hair, the insurance will be reduced and no more payments. Very excited.
Karen: Me too! I love 0% interest.
It’s just like that Expedia commercial that is on TV where they train the girl to push the mouse to accept the deal.
It sounds like a good move on your part. š
woo hoo! that will tie up so many loose ends!
Wow. Big decision. Hopefully you can sell it sooner and recoup the cash. Good luck girl!
Money Funk Heh, now I feel a little bit like a monkey.
Sense SO excited about how much will be taken care of.
Squawkfox Thanks! Will update once things happen.
