hint for you, weather you like it or not... you're better off paying for your toys and financing a business. if things go south, you walk away from the business assets but you still have your toys. that being said, all my tools and 95% of my toys are paid for...

I was thinking about that, and I do have a little financing, about 15 percent of my whole business. I find that cash has no interest rate at all, and I kinda like that!

I look at it this way, if my business isnt successful, I can always sell the equipment, and with everything, I will come out even, maybe even slightly ahead.

Sure is hard not having all the toys i want though lol.

A fleet of lightnings would be very cool too!

Out of the choice of that or a fleet of stangs, that would be a hard choice, but for me personally the stangs would slightly (and I mean slightly) edge out the lightnings.

Boy would I ever like to have that choice someday!!

A fleet of Mustangs would be a lot bigger since they have been built a lot longer....
