Please help… I want a car, but new is out of my budget. If I go used, what should I get? So, I’ve been looking at new cars. I want something like a Toyota Corolla cross, Subaru crosstrek, Honda HR V, Kia Seltos, or Hyundai Kona. However, where I live in California, those are all about $25k for the base model. So, that would land my monthly car payments around $450 a month (with a 60 month loan at 5%) and cause a $100/month insurance…

Renting a car with an outdated license? I’m traveling in a few weeks and renting a car at my destination. They say on their website that your license needs to have an up-to-date address.

Should I pay to fix my car? I have a 2013 Nissan Altima that I’ve owned since 2015. Just found out the transmission needs to be replaced, no other issues that I’m aware of.

I neither want to put that much into a car worth so little, nor do I want to buy a new car (or a new used car) but…

Current car broke down, found a used car for ~$8K cash, is it worth it financially or should I find a new car with 0% APR (Hyundai right now) and eat the high monthly payments ($600+)? The vehicle is a 2022 Acura ILX Premium Package with 21,000 miles for $8k because of door damage and has a reconstructed title – the carfax shows no structural or mechanical damage. The driver side door is crumpled from a car crash but the car is otherwise in great condition – fixing the door I estimate $2k or so in repairs with the towing inclu…

Financed car impulsively and don’t know what to do (FL) I just financed my first car today. I’m 21 years old with a 610 credit score. I just started a job making $15/hr plus tips as a valet.

It was my first time at a dealership and I didn’t consult my fami…

My sisters ex just opened a car insurance policy under my sisters name. What are the next steps? My sisters a little too heated to think rationally right now so I’m trying to do it for her. The policy is for $3500 a year. Not positive why said ex did this, but likely because they’re terrible with money and have an awful credit score. Should we just call the company in the morning? I’m not familiar with this. submitted by /u/halchemy …

Is it dumb sell investments to pay off my 3.9% car loan? I have a mortgage and a car loan that’s adding up to quite a bit every month. I have a solid emergency fund and max out 401k HSA and IRA. With all of this in mind, my car payment of $1000 a month is pretty heavy even if I can afford it. I know that keeping the money in the market is probably a good idea if I have a big enough emergency fund. But…

LPT – Check your car warranty periodically to make sure that you’re informed about any “secret warranties” issued by your car’s manufacturer. A secret warranty is a way manufacturers avoid recalls. They’ll pay to fix a certain issue in a specific type of vehicle even after the warranty expires, but only if consumers complain persistently. If you make noise, they’ll help you. Secret warranties are for common defects that could cause recalls. Manufacturers call them warranty adjustments…
