I like Twinkies. Regular and deep fried.
I hate that term referring to HDs.
I ride a Twin Cam.
I might be butt hurt.

No one is more debt averse than we are. We don't feel like we're missing anything.

We have always been credit adverse and used it to buy our first home on a 15 year note.

Some take zero financing so they can "invest" Which may sound great in a higher interest environment. IN this environment, if I cannot make 3-4% emotionscinterbpvention.WITHOUT ANY RISK and GET 0%, I am paying cash.

I also would rather hold the title so I can sell without issue.

Good for you. You might want a financial decisions intervention.

I don't mind the Twinkies label too much... I think its pretty damned creative.

I do like both regular and deep fried edible twinkles though! Plus, the state fair had some deep fried chocolate covered twinkles that were OUTSTANDING!!!!!
