I think that if they can not agree then this is not one of those arguments that we bow down ,and agree to disagree. I am sure your cousin has justification's for her negative responses for this new vehicle. Most likely it is a money issue. If they can't afford it right now then maybe she could hold him off by telling him to wait and see how the tax return is going to look like. Tell him that 2008 insurance rates are going to rise substantially in every category. Not just a new car payment, but higher insurance rates too. I would be thinking about waiting until after the first of the year so there are no surprises in their tight budget. I take care of our budget and sometimes have to sit my husband down to show him just exactly where we stand financially. When he is visually able to see it for himself, then he understands the stress budgeting our income with our monthly bills really is on me and understands why I feel we cannot afford exspensive dreams right now. I do try to always give him a possitive reaction, like possibly waiting for the income tax return time and then see if we can afford to go out on the limb then. Some people say that if he's making the money then he should be able to purchase the car. News for them, if she is home taking care of the bills,cleaning, cooking, and children, she too has a full time job and is saving them money for child care and being a full time homemaker and mother. LOL! Tell cous. I said best of luck to her.

Even if he could afford it with no problems, I still think it's stupid.
The car is less than 2 years old for goodness sake, there are sooo many better things he could spend the money on than a car he doesn't even need!

As long as they can afford it I don't see what the issue is. My father used to get a new car every 2 years. So did a lot of his friends and our relatives. If it's going to cause a financial strain than no, he shouldn't get one.

If she says no, and hopefully she's saying no for good reasons, then he should listen to his wife... and hold off on another car purchase. I'm imagining that if he just bought a car a year and a half ago then they probably still have a car payment... I could see her not wanting another car payment to deal with... If I were him, I would listen to my wife.

It depends on their financial situation, the value of the car he would be trading in and the car that he would be buying.
For example, my brother only had his truck for a little over a year (owned not leased) and he traded it in so that he could lease a small car. between gas and payment he is saving $250/month.

Sure he will prolly have to roll a whole heck of a lot of negative equity in to the new car which means higher payment!!

a person like this should lease a car if they want to get a new one so often instead of buy it... also, want to add... all married couples should wait at least 24 hours to make a decision like this... and all married couples should not do it if one of them says no or has doubts... they should wait... I am sure she has good reasons for not wanting him to get this new vehicle... and he should listen to his wife's input...

Its up to them - if he wants to buy a new car every week it's up to them. If they can't agree on something as simple as this then they shouldnt even be together.

Can they afford it? Either way, they need to come to an agreement on such a pricey item...
