"You don't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you may just find, you get what you need" Mick Jagger

Ask yourself "Do I REALLY need that vette or do I just WANT it?" And "Do I really WANT to go $26k in debt or do I just NEED to pay off the $9k debt I'm in."

My advice, be happy with what you got, as so many around you are losing everything they have, that vette is probably sitting on that car lot because someone lost their job or could no longer afford the payments, maintenance, insurance and gas for it, jmo.
