How is that bad financial planning?
I put enough down so that I wasn't upside-down on the loan from Day 1.
I'm making more than enough money to keep the car, I just was shocked at the trade in value as it was my first experience doing anything like that.
There's no point in making payments over the winter and not being able to drive it.
I've already looked into winter beaters and the like and they aren't suitable for my job requirements. A job which was too good to pass up and unfortunately is in another city that I need to commute to on the weekends. Buying any car new is bad financial planning... How did you purchase YOURS?
