I hate it. It's so frustrating. I have a Dodge Dakota that I have been driving now which gets a wonderful 18 mpg city/highway combined.
I've been searching for a Honda, Acura, Toyota....something that we all know works great and gets good gas mileage and when I sell it, the depreciation won't be so much.
I feel like such a car whore. I have brought home a new car almost every couple nights and I just give them back to the dealership because something is wrong. Well, I finally found a nice car. White, 2002 Honda Accord with 125,000 miles on it. Kinda high. Anyways, I'm frustrated because:
Insurace is going to be too high for me since I'm 19 and I can't get a loan on my own because I don't have any credit (yet.) I was trying to go through my grandmaw and have everything through her. Her and my mom live in South Carolina, I live in North Carolina. I couldn't have the car in my name, NC tags and the loan through someone in SC. Well my maw maw backed out and now I'm down to talking with my mom. Well, she is really hesitant (sp?) to have this car in her name, the loan through her and then just add me as a driver on her insurance and be driving in NC. She thinks something would happen to her insurace or something. I dont' know what the issue it.
My stepmom had a car that was registerd in her parents name in Tennessee and even had Tennessee tags. She had plenty of license checks and stops and she didnt' get into trouble. I'm trying to explain to my mom that everything being in her name and me driving in NC won't matter. It would be like a college kid getting a car for college and driving in another state and that car being on the parents insurance and the parents name.
Is there anything wrong with all this. What COULD happen. Just thought I would vent.
Thanks for reading
