Mom has to go to town tomorrow because the car is making a funny noise, AGAIN. I guarantee you if she qualified for an Auto Loan that car would be total history. She put over $1,000 in it just 3 months ago and it seems small problems keep popping up. Unfortunately payments are not feasible right now and her credit isn’t that great. Just for kicks I went to an Auto Loan Calculator and figured it’d cost me about $250/month for a focus if I got it for 5 years. I’m going to have another one whether it is next year or a few down the line. I loved mine and want another SO badly. I intend on getting a black one this time around though ;)
