Mom's do you have your own car?

We saved up and bought a used car cash from a private seller. That way we didn't have to get a car note. Because cars get REALLY expensive once you start paying interest on a loan.

Yes I have my own car, after 8 years of using my beater car (a Dodge caliber at 200k miles) we used my work program to qualify for a moderately sized discount on a car through carvana. My credit was decent so I qualified for a 600/mo car payment. When we both worked FT and I brought in more money it was doable, at this point we have had to get tight with our budget since we've been on one income but we still make it work. I could've gotten a cheaper/older car but it was my first time getting a car on my own so my husband wanted me to splurge a little and get a two year old car with 30k miles. It's been 3 years since but the other options were had were to go to a used dealer or do a private sale for a better price but not necessarily better car :/

We had just my car (way too small for us lol) until last year we bought a new Chevy traverse. It’s way too expensive honestly we did the math and with down payment and monthly payments we’ve spent $26,000 in less than a year and still owe more than that. We kind of just had to make the payments work because we had to get a new car
