Now that I'm done cleaning that up, time for bed.

save your monies.

even if only spent money on the bare essentials I still wouldn't be able to afford it before I finished college. Cars are ridiculously expensive here, the cheapest new car is about 20k, my dad paid over 100k (probably closer to 150) for his Volvo. sure I could get a used one for maybe 10k that isn't a total wreck but I'd probably end up paying the difference in gas and repair bills (gas is like $6/gallon here, so small efficient engines will make a big impact). because of my age I'd also most likely end up paying 3k/year in insurance alone, which is a pretty big hit on a college student budget.

What would a small motorcycle cost?

not too much, insurance wouldn't be too bad either, without running the numbers I'm pretty certain I'd be able to afford one.

I would however have to get an MC license which would probably run me about 2k but the biggest problem is that I live in Scandinavia... not the most MC friendly place for most of the year :\

when i was a teenager I used to drive a scooter (every teenage boy here has one), and while drifting in the snow was fun back then, ain't now fucking way I'm doing that again as an adult D: especially with a motorcycle.
