Just paid off the excursion

JUST PAID OFF MY 2005 EXCURSION LIMITED 4X4 V10. SENT THE LAST PAYMENT TODAY AND NOW ALL I HAVE TO DO IS WAIT FOR THE TITLE IN THE MAIL. ITS A GREAT FEELING. GONNA DRIVE IT TIL THE WHEELS FALL OFF, BUT READING THE MILEAGE THIS VEHICLE IS CAPABLE OF I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO, READING 34,045 TODAY TO BE EXACT!!! NOW I THINK I'M GONNA KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR OEM 20" WHEELS FROM A SUPERDUTY. SEEN A FEW IN THE FORUM AND LIKE THE WAY THEY COMPLEMENT THE TRUCK.

Congrats and welcome to the club... The feeling is a great one, on my 4 1/2 year contract I paid it off in 2 years and what a wonderful feeling. Enjoy HER!

Yeah its great not to have a car payment.. I debated with myself a lot about taking on a new car payment but took it over 5 yrs so its barely over $200 which makes it manageable when funds are tight and easy to pay extra each month....

You will enjoy it even more now

Oh boy what a feeling. The excursion is my first vehicle that I have paid for completely, and I know what it feels like.

The down side is,,,,,, now you have the extra money to sink into mods, and the truck payments seemed smaller compared to the mods.
