I think i put $500 down on a ford probe back in 2000. It was the only car i made payments on n I've paid cash 4 all my other cars since then. I do not do car notes i hate bills n refuse 2 get my shyt repo'd.

Yeah, I was told it's best to go thru the bank first.

And also, goin' straight thru the dealer, they'll pull your credit so many times before you buy, and it would drop your credit score

I believe it only counts once as long as within 30 days.

But if you got good credit, gping thru the dealer isnt bad cause u can get a 0.9 or 1.9 interest rate.

At least Honda does that.

But i agree.... if you have kids it's definitely worth it getting something more reliable and safer.

Imma keep this 2010 Chevy until I die unless i have kids

Yeah, I don't blame you. If it runs good, keep it and avoid debt

If i was you, i wouldnt put any money down.

It would do u a helluva alot more to have that 1000 bucks or so in your bank account

Depending on interest rates, every 1,000 down is like 20 off your monthly payment, which ain't too bad

Let's say I wanted something new by my birthday in September..knowing that today.I would probably put aside 7-9000 by next September as my down payment at least..depending on what I wanted.

Change now while there are end of the year sales going on. If you can, the show model is always the best option as they can't sell it as new and it should have under 1k miles as it was prolly driven around the parking lot

They know my credit isgreat because they email me fucjing daily trying to get me to take one of these year ending deals...and I got a wrecked Dodge Charger just sitting back there. Lol.

I got a 2002 caddy sts, with a misfire so bad, other cars in traffic can see my car shake at times. It also has a dangerously high idle, but this bytch starts right up in the winter and gets me to and from work.

Time for a change soon tho. Might wait til the holidays are over

Do it now.
Mad holiday sales and theyre desperate at end of month.

Last car I bought I paid $2500 in cash. Used Impala. Cars are the biggest waste of money because they drop in value so fast...I prefer to just buy used and it lasts me several years at a time. I've only spent $4000 total on two cars in 12 years. I only lost the first car because my bro crashed it

For me, a car is just a way to get from point A to point B.

Smart man
