The thought of ever having a car payment again makes me sick. There are countless nice 10 year old cars right now which can be obtained cash in hand, look great, and will last for years and years.
Having the money to pay cash for a car is one thing, but having it and choosing to pay cash at current auto loan interest rates...well...one could easily argue that's a silly thing to do.

Leverage isn't a bad thing, nor is making your money work harder for you.
