Ok well I am 20. This would be my first credit card. All I have had before is a debit card. I'm not 100% educated on the way credit cards work, but I know the basic is if you pay it off your covered. Sounds like If I stay on top of it it will be a good thing.

If you work it right, it aint so bad. Had my CarCareOne for 2 years and I pay it off everytime within a month or two before interest is due. If you follow the rules, its great. Never paid a penny of interest. But if you have a bad habit of getting behind or minimum payments, probably not a good one for you.

Just bought some Harland Sharp rockers on it a week ago.

Exactly...be smart about it and don't push it until the last month of no interest. If used wisely the CarCarOne card is an awesome deall!!

The problem with a card is that if I have a credit limit of $23 hundred for car parts we buy $23 hundred dollars worth of car parts....

Ahh, but now I'm married and my wife looks at an intake manifold, some hoses (like $800 in hoses including brake lines and nitrous hoses), sway-bars when my car already has perfectly functional ones on it already, and a stupid *** bottle (nitrous) and than yells at me about how she could have bought another 65 inch TV for the same price.

Damn she gets pissed at me when I do crap like that.

"You spent $1,800 on PIPES, PIPES!!!!!"

"...but hunny they make the Z06 go VVvvvvrrruuummmm."

Mine came in handy for an emergency set-o-tires and new brake pads back in my college days...





...than I also threw in some new zinc plated slotted rotors and stainless steel brake lines...

...and some SLP tuned Bilstein shocks...

...since I was doing the shocks I went ahead and bought Hotchkis Springs to do it at the same time...

...with springs you need that new Hotchkis Adjustable Panhard Rod...

...than new Lakewood LCA's and Granettelli LCA relocation brackets...

...and I threw in a set of Hotchkis 35mm front 25mm rear sway-bars to balance it all out (BTW best mod ever).

Damn I forgot I did all that!!

You can only spend over $200 if it is for jewerly for your wife.

The way they keep you married is that if you get divorced you have all the back interest slammed onto the account.
