My New Jeep 4×4
July 27th, 2010
I’ve always wanted a 4×4 Jeep Wrangler or Scrambler. Finally I’ve been in a well-paying, stable marketing position for plenty long enough to afford one. Unfortunately, I got into some credit card debt trouble in my late teens, and my credit score has still never fully recovered. So getting approved for a car loan has been a true test of patience, with rejection after rejection piling up. Finally I opted to try a buy here and pay here car dealer, who would extend credit without worrying too much about my credit history. The payments on my new Jeep are higher than I would get if it were financed through a bank loan, as the rates are higher, but the payments still fall comfortably within my budget, and I get to drive the 4×4 Jeep I’ve always wanted.
