People are willing to spend $40 or so on a gas cap?? Admittedly, I'm a lil' slow, but.....why?

Well, I just spent $13 for a black t-shirt. That justifies the $3000 that apparently will get me back up to factory stated hp.

Umm, true. Sadly, that's why far too many American's are up to their eyeballs in debt. I feel VERY fortunate that although I am not rich (far from it) I owe nothing to anybody. If I cannot afford to pay for it by the time the bill comes in, I don't buy it, because it means I cannot afford it. I do not keep balances on credit cards...banks pay ME interest, I don't pay banks interest.

If you buy a worthless gas cap for $40, and have debt on your credit cards, that silly cap winds up costing far more than the already silly cost of $40 (for a GAS CAP!!) with the interest you're paying to the credit card company. Why would anybody do that? Sorry, I don't get it....

Hey Bobby... it's not a financial forum, it's a forum about people who are passionate about their cars. If I questioned every purchase I made related to my hobbies I wouldn't have any hobbies!! As long as I can pay my bills, sure I still have credit card debt, but I "WILL" have one of those gas caps. So what? It's $40 and I'll be the first to say it's a terrible "financial" decision, but it will be an enjoyable "EMOTIONAL" decision !!

Oh by the way. I made another "terrible" decision last week.
I purchased a Tanabe Medalion exhaust from Cali !!!!

I think it's really nice! But for $40, only you get to admire it for a few seconds each time you fill up.

That's not the truth. The truth is you don't get it AND you have an opinion about it -- which you've made very clear.

Meanwhile, those of of us with no debt AND a bit of money to play with will dress up our cars as we please, thankyouverymuch.

Hi Garm! What's the verdict on this TRD gas cap? Will it fit our Yaris?
Hope you stock em if they fit. I'd love to have one myself.

...as long as it is going on YOUR credit card, and YOU'RE paying the finance charges on top of the $40 ($40 for a GAS CAP, lol!!) I am very happy...and relieved it's not my money.
