I've been looking for a new car though, but I'm so indecisive.
Yeah, I'm pretty much lost. I thought ours would last a bit longer so I'd have more research time.

a bit of advice if I may, do not buy new EVER, buy a car that is at least a year old, you can still get a decent warranty. There is one exception to that rule if you can qualify for 0% interest.

Oh that sucks! This is a want, not necessarily need.

Yeah, I won't buy a new car. Looking for something 2012 or newer.

Or if you don't let them know ahead of time that you're paying all cash, and negotiate a super low price, and then pay cash :)

I've only ever bought one new car, though. I shopped many dealers until I got it for the price I wanted.

I have had 3 rats die in 2 weeks, the car got an oil leak and lost ALL of its oil. No shop wanted to replace the oil pan same day. My student loan is delayed for an unknown amount of time... Cars making a new squeak noise... shop told us, oh that's fine don't worry about it... x.x

Depends what you want really.. I like my car and it is fairly cheap. Chevy Sonic Hatchback.. I think new they are like $13k?

If I had to suggest one thing ... hatchbacks... because hatchbacks are life.

Get a Jeep. They are so sexy.
My main criteria for a car are that it runs well, has some guts to it, and has ample leg and head room for my husband. He's been so cramped in our little Honda Civic. Good gas mileage is a priority as well.

0% interest on a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk baby...only costs me nearly $700 a month but JEEEEEEP. Just barely over 8k miles too so should last me a few years.

you are wrong your main criteria should be sexy. Think Wrangler.
