Cars are so expensive. I wish I liked fixing cars or had my own garage so I could fix my own cars because it would be so much cheaper.

All the cars I am looking at are around 25k. With a 5 year loan that would be $500 a month! How do people buy new cars and have mortgages? I am going to go hide my head in the sand right now.

I'll buy a paper tomorrow and look at the Sunday paper tonight. I have never bought a car like this before. My current car (my first) I bought from Jenni.

The funny thing is that if we were talking about buying a house I wouldn't have a problem with it at all. I know houses and how to buy them.

And check the incentives online. Just looking here I see that F has 3.9% financing on 60 month loans on most of their models.
I'm sure the other OEMs are in the same boat. Generally you're looking at 9-12% for a loan on a used car.

Actually, looking at my credit union, it looks like I might be able to get a good used car loan.
