i dont see what the big deal is about living with parents and having a $35k car...
some young people have jobs where they have to drive clients around. a lot of people i grew up with didnt have to give their parents a dollar to live at home. if this were my case, i'd have an extra $40k or so in the bank. not everyone had their college paid for. i'm house shopping now but there's no way i could do that at 18. not that much of my action happens at home, but my parents are VERY cool anyway.
sure i couldve gone with a cheap car with the $22k i put down, maybe a yaris and save me a good $8-10k or a used car cheaper. my priorities must be all over the place. i chose to get a nice car and be happy knowing the house would come in a few months than own a p.o.s. and be depressed on the way to work. im 22, if it matters.
