None. Some lenders may be more tolerant depending on individual profile. 

 

The general rule would be if you have to ask, may not be a good idea.

This. Better to just wait until you're in a position where you have few enough inquiries that you don't have to care.

Just curious as to how many inquiries you're talking about.

Re: Who is inquiry friendly?

For scoring purposes those vehicle loan inquiries are lumped together and count as one inquiry if they’re within a certain timeframe. Whether or not a potential credit card lender chooses to view them that way is their prerogative. If you apply and are denied, and it’s a lender that will recon, you could do so and explain the vehicle loan shopping, if that’s a denial reason.
