WOW!!! the mustang i'm about to buy isn't even gonna cost me that much!!! I guess because I've never had a credit card, and never gotten a loan (besides my school loans...), and pay cash for every car i've purchased, I have no ides how the financing thing works, but that sure seems like quite a bit to me! I was raised with the philosophy: "Work had to make money then buy stuff (or save it)" Not buy stuff then work to pay it off with interest. (One exception... A mortgage on a house.)

The bad part about it is its a 4x4 4wheeler and It will be hard to keep out of the mud. Mud = braking things. So it will really suck paying that monthly payment and its sitting in your garage broke.

Oh not to mention its a Grizzly not a Honda so it will be broke a lot. lol I have 2 honda 350s 4x4 and they sure are a lot of fun. And i payed less than that for both brand new in 04. But you will have alots of fun on it so it will be worth it.
