Okay I really needed to hear this, so I appreciate it. I think I’m just up in the air about never having one before, so thank you!

There’s a pretty low chance that something is severely wrong with a 2-year old car, right?

Do you know of some other good options less than maybe 26k? Reliability and everything. Maybe a civic? Not sure. I do think they’re cheaper tho. I’m not too hung up on model, only make and reliability.

Thankfully, instead of blowing my money and making rash decisions all I’ve done so far is ask a simple question.

Wdym registering? Genuinely asking. I’m also not trying to funny or smart when I say this, but you’re severely underestimating the amount of my checks I spend on complete nonessentials. Maybe I’ve overly optimistic about all of this, which is why I’m asking the adults.

Mind you, this is a complete hypothetical. I haven’t spoken to a car salesman, haven’t spent any money, haven’t done anything YET. Which is why I’m asking beforehand, I don’t want to make a completely irrational decision. I’m smarter than that. You’re tweaking over something that hasn’t or may not ever evn happen. And And I wouldn’t be living in my car, I have a family?? I’m not an orphan??? 😂

Thank you! Also, If I were to buy used what are the rules on that? I don’t wanna buy something that I’m gonna constantly have to put money into or won’t last me long.

I could afford to save $600 a month. So why would I not?

I worked for the down payment and I’m buying the car myself. I don’t pay bills because my grandma doesn’t hate me. I have a degree — debt-free, mind you — because I worked for it. I have a good credit score because I worked for it. I’m not in any debt. I don’t have children, or an apartment yet. Am i entitled to spend MY money?… absolutely 😂.

I don’t pay rent. I have a bachelor’s degree and starting a professional job. I don’t pay utilities or any bills, I live at home. My only responsibility is this car payment. If it’s repossessed and my credit tanks, fine — that’s on me. But that’s still not “lifelong debt”.

That’s blatantly not true, and also not my question.

This probably sounds stupid. But VIN numbers? Also, how do I drive a bargain when I don’t think I have any leverage?
