Four years ago I went through a bankruptcy because of some stupid choices that I made. I am almost out of that hole, 3 years earlier than everyone said I would be. My credit score is rising monthly. I use to be able to buy what ever I wanted, now I get gouged with financing. That is what happened with the Element, it was a $16k vehicle and I was paying $500 a month for it. I had to have a second car for Sha, so I really had no choice. I lost my mustang because of it. But now I have a brand new car and I pay less than I did with a 4 year old car that was half the price of this one. Back when I bought the mustang, I had 0% financing. I am gettign closer and closer to being able to get that again though.
