^Exactly. I have rent, utilities, groceries, gas, insurance, phone, and incidental costs to pay. Cuts a LOT of my money away.

I have all those as well and only made 18k last year... Just don't expect everything to happen all at once. Everything I have done to my car has a month or two of saving behind it.

i make 13k a year, and i have all that, and I feel you man. Almost at the quitting stage, but everytime i look at my car, and remember my dream, I always buck up a lil bit, and press on to the next pay check. *shrug* what else can you do?

especially when maintenace costs more than buying it new. >_<

I have 2 cell phone bills 3 car insurance payments a small amount of rent for 2 diff places...

I make almost 28k a year.

When I had the cobalt **** was tough because My payment there was 499.92/mo insurance was 318.16/mo plus 130/mo cell phone gas maintenance on the car and everything...

But don't worry be happy everything happens for a reason... you gotta get through the rain to see the sunshine!

Sweet.. I think I just found myself a new quote. LOL

Hobo, what are your thoughts right now on the project? Making any moves towards a different direction, or do you plan on continuing the boost build, but at a slower pace?

It may still move forward but my money for the next 3 months is tied up in moving expenses, rent, and bills.
