Not to mention it has almost 200,000. I have the title free and clear (no payment). Its about to give up the ghost as well so I couldn't sell with a clear conscious. Its running bad, burns oil, etc. (its costing me 600+ month in gas alone!)I drive 35 miles one way to work (I am a registered nurse making $21/hour) My husband and I have 2 kigs, no mortgate or rent payment (was passed down an old ranch house to live in that we fixed up) and we don't have car payments either.We have the typical house hold expenses, a student loan payment of $225 and some small cc debt (2500).
I also work occasionally at a near by hospital for $27/hour and I put in for a position where I currently work that would give me a $5/hour raise.MY Credit is questionable. I have a repo that reports on Experian and TU that will come off in 9 months. My equifax credit report is basically cleaned up except for a 30 day late student loan payment that is in the works of being taken off as well. My equifax score is 708, TU-615 (last I checked) and EX is 587! (last I checked.) I have been disputing some errors on there, but not sure how much of an impact that will make on my scores.so my questions are these:1.) How do I get financed for a new car?2.) What kind of car should I get?3.) How new of a car should I get?4.) Whats a realistic car payment I could afford?My husband makes a decent living though self employed and income not garunteed at any given time, though it seems to be ok. I bring home about 4k a month. (that is consistent and always there)
