There are good people who believe owning a red car is immoral, some don't believe in driving a car or using a computer either.

As an example, I just bought a new car. I

These signs are on my car when the car is used for business (like driving to a meeting with a seller) and for personal use (like going to the grocery store).

I would much rather rent two 500 apartments than find a great tenant willing to pay 1000 in this town .its much easier to sell a 2,000$ car than it is to sell a 10,000$ car .i would caution you on having a two year lease that’s a rookie mistake you should avoid .

We have extremely detailed mileage logs (we keep booklets in our car).I should also note that we do not want to do actual cash reimbursements or have mileage credited towards capital accounts, etc.  

I figured I was just wasting my money paying for a car I wasn't even driving.I paid it off as soon as I got back from my first deployment and I'm now driving a 2011 Toyota Corolla.

Hi there everyone, I am new to BiggerPockets and actually became a member for the purpose of real estate but I have a huge issue at hand regarding my car (or rather the car I am financing).
