Woot! Even though it doesn’t seem like much to you right now, an extra $220 a month is pretty awesome. Since you already have plans for it, clearly the extra cash will help you out in a significant way so kudos! I hope to have my car paid off in another year. We’ve been putting an extra $150 per month toward the 0% interest loan in order to get it paid as soon as possible.

Good for you! Both of our cars are paid off and it is a great feeling. I know we will need to buy something newer in the next year or so and I hate the thought of what it will cost us!

Congrats on paying it off, Daisy! It may not feel like much, right now, but I’m sure there’ll come a time when you’ll notice the little bit of extra cash. You know, when you need more mulch. 😛

Congrats! I love having paid off cars and am not looking forward to seeing which one dies first…

Congrats on paying off your loan…no matter how small the loan is it always feels good getting your debt (credit card, student loan, car payment or the big mortgage to zero).

Awesome! Sounds like we are in the same boat! I bought my new-to-me car after my old one was totalled, it’s a 2007 VW Golf that only had 48,000 km. I’m on track to pay it off in October, and I’m so excited about that!

I think it’s a big deal! Avoiding 4.4% interest in this low interest rate environment is a pretty good return on your money. Congrats!

Congrats! Sometime a car is a necessary evil. During most of the year mine just gets me to and from the park and ride and I’m on the bus to downtown. And great planning on the debt payoff, it’s always nice when a plan comes together as it were.
