my new ride. deal or bad deal. 2000 Columbia with the N-14 500hp

I didn't need to finance it but was offered so I took it. I have plenty of money for any breakdowns and such. Just thought it was a great deal and I get to keep the extra $money in my pocket and be back in trucking. Took off the last year and a half or so and got the bug.

 

Great, a 2-4 hours a week plan will work for me. I found a couple small air leaks today while gutting the interior, hoses are a bit brittle in the dash and I cracked one while removing the seats too.

 

Lol. I like her(my cpa) and she keeps me up to date so I know where I am at. I bought a car with a bank check from my savings account last year and I got a form(forget the form number) that I had to fill out and send to the IRS because they now considered it a "cash" transaction when you go to your bank and get a bank or cashiers check. If I would have known that I would have given the car dealership a personal check or bank transfer/wire or something. Sticks but whatever. So yes payments are good![QUOTE="semi" retired;4272264]Hi gerry, when it comes to the business part , I'm terrible. I avoided my accountant like the dentist, but I think it's good to have some sort of payment. The last thing you want is the taxman (or taxwoman) seeing you are making money, that much I do know.[/QUOTE]

 

Thanks everybody. taking it in to get all the fluids changed and have the mechanic give it a once over and his/her opinion or thoughts, get my samples to mail in, and pick up my trailer to get dot'd. Saturday heading west and grab some potatoes or onions on the way back.
