Don't believe in credit cards, they are for the unwise. Killed me to finance 15k for the Jeep.

When I want something, I work OT shifts till I have enough to pay cash for it. Doesn't break the bank or effect my finances.

Cash! If I can't afford it at the time I'll save. However, there is the occasion that the cc starts speaking to me...

Cash. If you really want it bad enough, you will figure out how to pay for it. There's nothing wrong with eating Ramen noodles for a month if you need a lift kit.

I would say credit cards are not for the unwise. There is nothing wrong with them in the hands of a wise person.

I put it on my credit card since I order the majority of my parts online BUT I only order stuff if I have the cash to pay for it.

Last year (June) I sold my fifth wheel hitch and bought my lift... stored it in my garage. In November on Black Friday I ordered my wheels from DTD and in March I purchased my tires from Discount Tire (store) and my Poison Spyder Bumper off Craigslist. Purchasing my EVO Gussets this month and saving for my front bumper now.
