Look into studnet loans, financial aid, pell grants, TSCC, and if you have a veteran or someone in your family I dont think there is age limit on when you can start on it but check into that as well. I get pell grant, TSCC, and VA for college. Really helps out alot.

I usually lean toward the "be responsible and avoid debt" side of the spectrum, but not this time. How many more years do you have? That is a really nice car but you will not get fair dollar for your mods. And this is about the absolute worst market to be selling a used car. New cars come with excellent financing options, unemployment is very high, consumer confidence is very low, etc. How would you get around without that car? I don't know your situation, but my first response is to get some kind of student loan.

Aw man I would have loved to have gone, but myself and my car will be in the DC convention center for World of Wheels car show. You guys should come check it out. Friday, Sat and Sunday. Potomac Mills isn't far at all from me, I live in Germantown MD, it's only about 10 - 15 miles north of DC. Let me know next time there is a meet, I would like to meet up with you guys.

Later Jason

Thats horrible. No one should ever try to make a man part with a 240. Apply for student loans. I hope you dont have to get rid of your car

don't go to school for a few terms, work hard and make the money you need, then go back. in the future will you say "i sure miss my 240 but it was worth selling it so i could finish school 6 months or a year sooner"?
