Yeah, really stuck. They offer low financing on new, but you get depreciation. Buy used, already depreciated, and pay high interest. Comes out the same either way. Glad I nailed down what will work and that may eventually be affordable. Gonna save more cash for now.

Haha- and if you set it up on Autotrader and find something a bit far away they should be able to nab it for you.

Uh huh, and I've got a 830+ so the credit union will give me 4.5% for 72 months, but that makes a 35k car 55k. Still no.
