but I also need to start building more credit than one tiny credit card gives me, so I'll probably do half or a little less than half down and pay off the rest over time.
Ooh, good plan.
Also, Toyotas and Nissans are apparently very reliable, which is good...they're on my list as well.
Eh, Mom has a '97 Nissan, and it's been in and out of the shop a lot lately. Then again, it's a minivan, and she treats it like crap. Nissans might actually be good if you take decent care of them and do maintenance and stuff.
So, are you going to be shopping for one next year because you're moving out of Chicago...?
Yes! Good lord willing and the creek don't rise, I'll be headed down south next summer. (My vague goal at the moment is Chattanooga, if I can find a nice job down there, so if you're gonna be in Knoxville for a few years, I might be within hanging-out distance...)
