We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.

It happened today for the first time in our marriage- our two vehicles paid off. As I drove in my car that I now owned outright, it felt a little weird. We, the Williamsons, have no car payments. What seemed like a day that would never come, has happened and it feels pretty good. Dave Ramsey may be a little coo coo, and puts a serious damper on my Target trips,  but it felt really awesome to make that last payment and to hear the little lady on the other end tell me, "Congrats" like I was welcoming a new member to my family.

Don't get me wrong, I would love to go out and purchase the new Dodge Durango, a Honda Pilot or even a BMW (who wouldn't) but there is something to be said for that glimpse into financial freedom.



Kingston isn't so sure that life can be as fulfilling without an M5 Beamer.

Yay for you guys! That is such a great feeling.

Cool! I'm hoping our cars hold out for the same reason.... to be car payment less. At least for a couple more years.
