Making payments on it, insurance, and something always breaking on it and requiring fixing. And don't forget gas. With the money I make I couldn't afford it. When people start to realize all the money I save they take it more seriously and not as a joke.
When I was in high school, way back when , my grandfather, who raised me, said he wouldn't let me get my drivers license if I didn't shape up. When I said I didn't really want a license, me told me it was time to grow up, and made me get the license.
