Well it is time

June 28th, 2007 at 09:37 pm

To get a new car that is Frown I have been holding off as long as I could but now I am at the end of the road. I took my car in today to my mechanic who could not find anything wrong, but my car was shaking so bad all the way home last night and today that it was scary. It felt as though I was going to cut off any minute. The only thing my mechanic could come up with was age, but I know it is more to it. He said for me to continue to drive it but I am afraid to. I drive about 13 miles to work each day (26mi round trip) and about the same to school two days out of the week so two days a week I average about 52 miles; and leaving school at 10 o'clock at night only to break down on a busy highway I simply do not want. I did apply for a loan and was approved with out a co-signer but the problem is my interest rate is high, very high (13%) even though I have paid bills on time for the last year and paid off CCs I still had some minor things on my credit like doctor bills, a broken cell phone contract by my ex and a partial car loan that the gap insurance did not pay when I wrecked my car ( I am filing a complaint with the BBB, this should have been taken care of and I thought it was)Anyhow, Monday is payday so I am paying off the two small doctor bills, I will later attempt to pay off the cell phone debt and then refinance the car. So this weekend I will be out and about, I am really interested in the Camry so we will see

    Good luck with finding your car... your safety should be your biggest concern with a new or second hand car. I've had a bad experience with a car where it's suspension failed and narrowly missed the tree on the side of the road.

    As soon as your get your Dr. bills paid off call and ask them to remove the negative information from your report. Most of them will usually do this for you if you ask. If you don't it can stay on your report for 7 years. Re-check your report to make sure that if they agree to that the information is removed.
