Bro your average American doesn't even have $500 in a savings account...
Anyone that tells you to pay for a car in cash or put a lot of money down doesn't know how financing works. If someone (bank) is going to lend you money at a very low rate, why would you not take it?
NT is the worst place fo financial advice

gotta love it man. If the car one is purchasing cost between like $800-$10,000 than I can see paying all cash upfront to be the more sensible option. But bro, prices on ALL new vehicles is insane across the board. I don't care if it's a muscle car/sports car/pick-up truck/hatch/crossover/SUV/commuter car etc...the prices are not "pay cash" prices. For most average joes financing is the only option. When I got my Challenger 4 years ago I put down $16 grand & financed the remainder $47 grand. I mean I would've absolutley had loved to pay $63,000 right than & there but that's super unrealitstic for most people but hey, if people out there got it like that than more power to them. Must be nice lol

I bought a car for $8500 cash a few years ago. It was a bad decision. Could’ve kept that money invested or in my emergency fund. Also would’ve damn near had a new car paid off by now. Only saving grace was I had another kid so I would’ve needed something more spacious than I would’ve copped back then. Learned my lesson I will always keep my cash.

Even if you insist on paying cash for a car at least charge it and get your rewards and pay it off by the time the statement hits.

I like tirerack.com, they at least have pretty in-depth reviews if you don't know what to buy.

So the out the door price for the car was 51 & the rest was taxes & fees & extended warranty that I should've never opted for. It's a loaded 2016 Scat with all the extra bells & whistles/sunroof/shaker hood option so it cost some more than a regular one with no options

Lmao yeah I mean the price of the car was 51 & the rest of the stuff added on made it come out to be 63. My interest rate was 6.34%. I never bought anything THAT expensive before that point in my life so my rate was higher even though my credit score was on the good side. If I spec'd a hellcat I believe it'd be mid 70s- for me lol so I stayed within my means

I stayed local & went to Bayside Dodge. The salesman did work with me & got me $2,500 off. I was going to Manhattan Dodge as a 2nd option but was too lazy to drive there & if I didn't get what I was looking for I figured it'd be waste of time/gas. I'll keep that dealership in mind that you mentioned for the future. Probably better deals upstate/PA area for sure

Lmao never! Screw the mta! Yeah 63 is high but all things considered- with the car being fully loaded + the extended warranty+tax/fees & my interest rate...I gotta pretty good deal...I think lolhe shuda copped a lifetime mta pass
If he spec'd a hellcat the way he wanted it would probably be 80ish

Only buy the manufacturer's extended warranty. The 3rd party companies are for the most part not worth the $$$ the paper they write the contract on. Always a way to deny coverage. Ford's ESP, if it's covered, you pay the deductible, end of story.
