    What would you do?

    Buying used PM with 330k miles?

    Thats awesome i hope to follow if your footsteps. Always liked the notion of getting to the point of paying cash up front and not expanding until you can instead of financing everything.

    Buying used PM with 330k miles?

    Being a young guy doing that for a personal car is a little more understandable id think. Doing it for a business vehicle governed by all these regulations is another.

    Buying used PM with 330k miles?

    No no no no no. I had no plans whatsoever of taking 5 years to pay off a van with 300k already. You guys must think im really stupid lol. The 5 year loan is only an example....if i had 5k to pay on a loan id try to have it paid off within 3 months. The 5 year also gives me a low "minimum...
