Same here but with no car loans.....no regrets. We just finished paying the final bit for our May 2013 vacation, a 10 day EU cruise with three days in London and one in Paris. We'll take as much cash as we will need and have a blast with no debt hangover to deal with when we get home, just fond memories....I went through 6 years of credit consolidation. I wouldnt buy a can of soup if I were starving with credit. Aside from my house and my cars I am 100% cash only and it feels good. Its harder work and takes longer to get what you want but its worth it.
