Default RE: Who has a Challenger Fund already?

ORIGINAL: RoswellGrey

Believe it or not, my daddy IS going to buy it for me -- or at least a big part of it. He had to move in with us several years ago due to having lost the use of his legs and I have to spend my mornings taking care of him before I go to work at night (my wife handles the night duties). As a joke, when it first was mentioned that the Challenger would return, I said I needed part of my inheritance to get one. Amazingly, he agreed -- he always liked my '70 and used to borrow it for such important trips as going to the grocery store or the mall. Actually, I've been spending all my money since 2001 to care for him, figuring the inheritance will more than cover it -- the ultimate case of it takes money to make money. But since he isn't a millionaire, I refuse to shoot up more than $30K on a car.
Not exactly what I had in mind.

And breaking the 30k is hard to swallow, but I think in this case its well worth it.
(its easier to do it again after you've done it once tho)
