Only ...a year into a new career with great pay and benefits, plus the Wife finished school and is now working.
I'll get a bonus come June/July, and that's probably when I'll make the move.
Thoughts?
Sell it, bank the bonus, if you and your wife are stable after 3 years, consider something then.
While I understand your concerns about my finances, with the bonuses I received last year, and a lot of frugal actions taken, with the raise I just received the only real debt we have left is my wife's car note and student loans, plus savings.
After doing a little more research, and the opinions expressed here, it probably makes the most sense to keep it since I bought it out right to begin with, and go with the upgrades. Even if I went with every crazy upgrade that comes across these boards, including a diesel swap, it would still be cheaper than the LR3's are with mild upgrades. If it continues to work for me for even just 5 more years, I'd probably be happy. By then, who knows what the cost will be on something else, nor how well we'll be doing.
