I'm still so happy that about 10 years ago Belgium passed a law that allowed for loans to be repaid early. Before that, the banks/loan institutions could block early repayment. They can still charge a 3-month-interest charge on the bit you repay early, but that's minor compared to paying the full interest for the full period.

I am just not a car person. I didn't drive for many many years, only got my own car when separating from now ex. So yeah, I now LIKE having a car. But as long as it is running and considered safe, don't really think much about it.

I’m not a car person but my next car years from now I will pay more attention to handling but still keeping the ability to go “off road light” which may mean a more expensive one.  I drive a lot of twisty CA roads.  My work car is a Dodge Charger, it is much more fun to drive on said roads than my Jeep Renegade.
