Help with my next step.

Hey guys just looking for a little advice from the credit gurus out there...

A little background

Been actively rebuilding for about a year now. Currently only have a cap 1 secured card that was changed to unsecured with a 550 CL. Have it at 1% utilization. Also just recently have had a successful pfd with both Ad Astra and Plaza services from old payday loans. After deletion i saw about a 50-60 point jump. Credit karma shows me at 714 TU 713 EQ. Only other history is a paid off auto loan thru cap1 that was completed in 2015.

 

My question is what would the best CC to go with next? Also will be looking to get a new car in the near future... what will the credit drop I can expect to see from a new app... and how long before I see an increase for proper usage from the new card. Thanks for any advice you can give.

First, Credit Karma scores are meaningless, but if your actual FICO scores are close to that, they're pretty good. Most people get a Discover card when their file is thin like yours. I would go for that.
