He said that was the first time he'd ever had a couple where the wife was all for it and the husband wasn't sure he wanted to do it. 
To be honest, in the space of 14 months we went from no car payments to two fairly hefty ones all the while having one of our boys turn 16 so insurance kicked way the heck up as well. |
LOL...I bet you were working out the money part in your mind while your wife was saying "let's go". Regardless, she's a good one. But maybe she doesn't have to pay either ;-)
Yah, my own insurance doubled when I got the ZL1, I pay the same for SUV as I do the sportscar. I imagine a 16 yr old is in a high risk bracket, so that would add a significant increase to insurance... which happens to be one of the biggest scams on earth....oh well.
