Who is this heretic? I will live in my Evo rather than sell it.

I am no heretic! I just don't let my car make decisions for me but other way around. I've seen people lose more than their cars and they still recover, get over it.

When I was in the Marine Corps stationed in Japan, I leased the Evo 4. Ever since that day, I have always wanted one. So, I've waited patiently... And finally, it paid off. The day I relinquish these keys is the day I cease to breath.

I just bought mine about 3-4 months ago, then they cut my salary at work... I've thought about it a lot, I was going to sell my SRT-4 to pay for mods on the Evo, but now I don't know for sure. The Evo is stock, the SRT-4 has about $15k in work done, all told, so I don't know if this is the best time to start a whole new project or not... =/

If it were up to me, I'd have you burned at the stake for such heresy. I mean really, who doesn't put their Evo before all other aspects of life? Maybe you should just sell your Evo to someone that will treat it the way it deserves to be treated...like a god amongst cars .

You obviously haven't seen much in your life... but hey that's cool. Keep your imaginative opinions to yourself and don't call people names you don't know. If you choose to pray to your car that's your choice. Let's see if you're going to swear by your Evo when the odometer hits 100K miles and the paint job doesn't shine anymore.

Just to conclude this waste of time post, all I meant to say in my original post is that the responsibility to take care of family for example is more important than a car. Which means selling the Evo would be the last resort but obviously you didn’t get that part in the first place.

I think you are taking his post way overboard, and are missing the sarcasm.

Man, I know this economy is rough, but don't worry there are still newbies like myself out here that are planning on taking care of somebody else's baby if they really had to sell it...LOL...(although I may only be able to afford to care for ONE in the near future) LOL

Solo II Evo:

You might me right, I wouldn't know sarcasm when I seen one.

Canexican:

Like I said to Solo II Evo I wouldn't know sarcasm when I see one and took your response the wrong way so I apologize for that.

Economy will eventually balance its self out so I will try my best to hold to my Evo.

Sell if you are on the chopping block. Or, get some of those credit cards, jack on as many months payment as possible, and get an insurance plan on them that if you lose your job, the balance is paid in 3 months

No problem dude. We all have our moments. I am liking your optimism though and the fact that you are coming to your senses. Hold onto her as long as you can and you won't regret it .
