I just paid off my 2020 Mazda MX-5 Miata

Wow. I've never owned a car before. I've always leased. I actually had pretty much the exact same one from 2017. When the lease was about up I went to the dealership to see what my options were. They said they weren't leasing them any longer so I could buy out the one I already had or buy a new one for just $50/more per month than I was already paying for the lease. I went with the new one. It is black with black rims. I wasn't thrilled about the black rims at first but I'm used to them now. I love my little convertible. It is a stick and fun to drive. Well it is fun to drive when a-hole NJ drivers aren't trying to run me off the road. I also am much more cautious about making left turns in front of oncoming traffic because it is so small that getting T-boned would likely kill me. I will hang in there with it for as long as I can. It will be nice to not have a $475 car payment. My mother has been on my case to get rid of it for over a year. I don't know why she cares to be honest. She doesn't have to drive it. She keeps saying it is impractical but um I live alone and don't have kids. I don't need more than a 2-seater.
