Well I put my notice in at Target, and was offerred a job with the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department Dispatch Center. Starts at $17.00/hour no experience, of which I have plenty.

Hopefully I'll be able to sell the 3g, and buy a good car.

Hey hey now. At a boi.

That definitely deserves an atta boy! :toast:

Excellent - good for you!!! :D

WooT!

So is this a 9-5 office job, or do you get to go out and catch the bad guys? :D

he'll have to catch himself first before he's allowed to catch anyone else..

No, this job will be evenings and weekends. I'll do just about anything for $17/hr

Almost anything...

Well with that job, I'll be making twice what I am now, about...

after taxes, I project $550/week

That's roughly $2000/month

minus 600 for rent

freeing up almost 800 after the 3g is history

school...

I'll probably have around $700/month to spend on car payment/insurance



Any suggestions??

Sounds like a good job. I say buy a c-5 vett, slicks, nawwwzzz and run some really fast times.

Yeah, don't go overboard :D You'll wind up regretting that too.

If you want my advice, I would buy a nice reliable daily driver, that you wont be tempted to modify at all. Then once you get that, go out and buy a project car like a Supra or RX-7 or something. Something that you can pay cash for, or pay off really quick. If you plan on making some big power, or taking your car to the track, especially a road course, you will thank yourself later. There's nothing worse than making car payments (especially big ones) on a car with a blown motor sitting in the garage. And the last thing you want to do, is put the shiny side down on a road course, and have to make payments on a car that's totalled.

That's just my take on things. Plus with a nice DD, you won't feel so bad about taking out the ac, and other useless stuff on your race car. :D

Kiel just get something thats practical for now. You dont have a garge or anything to mod it so just get something like an acura tl type s or something, sporty yet reliable. :woowoo:
