When I started making good money in porn I was buying new cars - paying cash - every year, always a Mustang. When my wife needed something, same thing - dumping cash into a brand new car.

I'm done with new cars. I bought a 1990 truck with 160k miles on it thinking I would use it to occasional haul stuff and as a third car in case we needed it, and I'm having more fun driving a "rather average" truck than I do driving my brand new car. I'm already looking forward to my next purchase too - I'm thinking a 1980s Monte Carlo SS or a 1970s Camaro.

Why drop $60k cash for a car when I can buy an older car for $2k and drop $6k into making it brand new - and have fun doing it.
