You're young and will probably make the same mistake that 95% of young people make, which is being tempted by the 0% car offers out there. My car was $450 for 60 months... SIXTY. Trust me, a car payment on a 5 year old car is really lame. So, I say get something you can pay for in 2 years, and then when you are in a better position to save money pay CASH. My car is paid off this money (3 months early wuhu! it only took a year of extra payments to do that...) and I promised myself I will never have a car payment again. Just putting a little away each month instead of a payment. |
