I own a 94' Ford Ranger pick up. It was used back in 96' as collaterale for my brother on a Debty consolidation loan. Just recently it stated acting up HORRIABLY!!! I can't even go to the store without making sure someone is with me to stay with the truck so I can leave it running. Other wise she won't start once I turn her off until an hour or more later. Just the other day I got stuck right next to a gas pump at a gas station just around the corner from my house. I literally just drove to the gas station to fill her up. And I was then stuck there for over 2 hours waiting for her to start again. Giving her jumps doesn't help and she not over heating. So I have no clue what wrong with her and can't afford to get her fixed. Sooooooo since I can't use her as a trade in until the loan my brother took out almost 8 years ago is paid off......He still owes $2,637.48 on the loan and my trucks estimated blue book value is only 1,000. So after talking with a few dealers I was told they won't take it as a trade in because it would end up biting them in the end. So My other option is to try and buy a car with no money down, but so far I have been
running into a brick wall......Most places even the shotty little corner dealerships require at least 1,000 down. I need a car sooner then I could save up that 1,000. I was just wondering if anyone on here knows of any other options I might have to getting me a new car. I am just at a totally loss! I even thought about taking a trip up to WA to see an old friend of mine who owns his own dealership just see what he could do for me LOL but the money I would spend just trying to get there could have been used as a down payment here.
Anyway Just looking for some idea's heck since this will be my first time to actually have to buy a car on my own I would like any tips also!
Just let me know.
