It would be hard to sell mine... I'm gonna drive her till she absolutely won't go anymore. Anyway... Mine was paid for when it was bought, so that was great, no payments!

I paid off the Z about 3 weeks after I got the Blazer. I would have really loved to go a little while without making a payment on something. *sigh*
