Yes to the Q, but something I don't recall coming from Ramsey is how to leverage your money. So, new car is needed. Save up the cash, then pay for the car with a cc. A cc that offers bennies (miles, points, whatever) and pay for the car with the cc. Pay off that cc in full when the bill comes in. You've got the car and XX bennie points to use on something else.
RB I don't know any car dealer that'll let you charge a whole vehicle. A down payment they will, but not the entire car. It's not hard to beat your leverage plan Rupert. We use a card to pay all monthly bills. One never gets missed, you only use one check/stamp, And we get rewards. Otherwise we only use it for internet purchases. But. When I'm buying something that costs several hundred $f plus, after negotiating the price as good as it will get, "I have a rewards card, I know I don't get back as much as they charge you. Sooo, can you, maybe split the difference with me if I pay cash? Never tried it for a car, just pay cash. Not sure why, but that will change. Hopefully not soon! Sign up to your credit card account and pay your bill online. No stamp, no check, nothing can get lost. You can do it from home or 5,000 miles away.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Could you cover a $1000 unexpected expense? Only 44% of Americans can. From what I see around me I'm honestly surprised the number is as high as 44%. I'd have guessed 15% could.

I could, but don't tell my wife or it'll be spent.

Well I figured most of the Campfire members would have no problem covering $1000, most have that much in their 'just in case I find a good deal' gun fund. I also imagine many of the Campfire members are 40+ and know what it's like to be financially responsible. I was just shocked when I saw that over 1/2 of Americans could not come up with $1000 if they needed to. 1k just in case I find a good deal has tripled that amount lately

The bigger question is could you cover a $1,000 bet if you lost. 🙊 He can. But his his head is so far down the Q hole that he’s unwilling to admit he was led astray by a PSYOP. LOL. Good one.

Since buying big ticket items on a credit card is enticing, with money back, bonus points.
Guess, asking what everyone’s credit card limit is, seems like a natural progression for this thread.

Same here.
And correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the Tremor is setup suspension wise for dedicated pulling and hauling.

Yeah, suspension is a little softer. I didn't really want the tremor package but it was take it or wait 4 months. I'll see how it does with the gooseneck and put bags on the rear axle if it's too soft.

We have had good look with heavy duty Timbren rubber 'springs'.
Made a big difference in sagging rear end.
