Default what would you do? long.

im at the point of my life where i want to move out of my house, get a place of my own with my girlfriend, and soon enough, start progessing my relationship with my girlfriend and stepping up one. for some reason i dont want my hatcback anymore, i still need $1000+ to get it running good. i dont have the money now, it will come over time but i am impatent. if i move into a house, i want a 2 car garage, but what would go in it? no hatch? i also want another atv, which is $6K. i would like to get it by the end of 04. i want a pickup truck, like an f150, but my girlfriend wants one also, im not getting 2. so i think she is going to win it and we will get it for her, so i will be out of the hatch and nothing to drive, i dunno what i want to drive everyday. should i keep the hatch, and when i move out, store it in the garage for a couple months and stop insurance payments on it until im ready for it again(after big buildup) and get a daily driver? i dunno im confused

-the atv can definently wait
-get the gf the truck so you can use it
-fix up your car and/or sell it and get something reliable
-save up for a down payment on a house
-move out

I'd keep the car... I'm assuming it's paid off. Can that be used as your daily driver?

Make sure you have good credit first. Moving out with no credit and or/spotty credit is suicide.

i dont think u guys are ready for a house yet, ur better off in an apartment...

ATV should wait

build up credit

find dependable steady job

finish school

id rather not rent, its a waste of money, id rather pay off a mortgage for something that will be mine. renting a house is usually more than mortgage payments.

once i pay off my atv, i can do the same thing and take a loan out and pay it monthly, $100 isnt bad.

also, if i get a house with garages, i can buy a none running hatch and work from the ground up, fresh start, and build it better than i am now....i know it will be good, but i like having my car..but i dont

Ah yes, but tents go for as little as $120 these days, and you can just buy a space heater. h:
