It depends what kind of car you want. If buying a 20k car, then yea you can prob. save up for it and pay cash. a 40K and up car is a different story though....

It all depends on your needs and wants. If you need a car right then and there, and want a 'nice' ride then most people will finance. If not in a hurry, then yea, you can prob. save up for it for 5 years and just pay cash.....
