I am trying to justify spending that kind of money on a new Overland. I am currently driving a 2002 Honda Accord. It gets me where I need to go, but has a small oil leak that just annoys the hell out of me. I could probably drive the car a few more years if I had to and might anyway. Also, I have a toddler and would love to upgrade to keep him a little safer, not to mention taking it out on camping and fishing trips.
Without getting to detailed into my finances, my wife and I make about 4-5 times as much a year as an Overland costs, but even with that it is hard for me to think of making a $1000 car payment over the next 3 years. I know I would love the new jeep, I went out and test drove one a couple of months ago. My brain just keeps getting in my way of going out and ordering one.
So, how do you guys justify spending so much money on a jeep? I am serious, as I am looking for a couple of good reasons to convince myself to get one. Every time I have just about convinced myself, I think about how having $50k less on my mortgage or $50k invested would probably be the better option.
