Goodbye, My Beloved Tahoe
Yesterday was a day of mixed emotions.
I sold my Tahoe.
Two and a half years ago, it was the first brand new vehicle I’d ever purchased, and I babied it. It was awesome. And best of all, it had a BOSE stereo system in it (which was one of my favorite parts). Did I mention that it was awesome?
In spite of the awesomeness of the Tahoe, it was the only remaining debt we had, and we were sick of that. As I’ve mentioned on here before, we’re Dave Ramsey advocates, and we’re finishing up Baby Step 2. We’re trying to get to the next step as fast as possible, and the Tahoe was just slowing us down. So we decided to kick it to the curb (pardon the pun).
So now I’m proud to introduce you to my new pal: a 2001 Chevy Silverado. Sure, he’s got some miles on him, but he drives great and is in excellent condition.
Worst part: No more BOSE system. :(
Best part: Our remaining debt is $10,000 lighter after only 24 hours. We cut Baby Step 2 in MORE THAN HALF just by making this move.
Can’t wait until it’s paid off, and we can move on to the next step.
It’s all about sacrifices, people.
P.S. Some sacrifices aren’t as hard as you think they’ll be once they’re over.
