RE: How is the economy in your area
To quote The Dark Knight "It's always darkest before the dawn.'
Idaho Falls hasn't been affected as bad as many other area's. You can definitely tell the pinch. But the city as a whole isn't too bad.
Car Sales have DROPPED and the construction biz has been hit hard. Oh... and Circut City went bye bye. Other than that we have been relatively fine from what I can tell.
Of course this is coming from a sheltered(money wise) 15 year old.
Times are tough. there only gonna get tougher.
I would save money now. Not later. And don't spend money you don't have.
And that's why we don't have a 09 Challenger and Ram in the driveway.
We could if really wanted to, but we don't.
Maybe if the economy completely crumbles and we get them for dirt cheap. But not now.
Oh... and we have a kid in college, my driving expenses and a house we can be paying off.
We have a 67 Cuda and that's as close as we're gonna get for a while.
