I just sold my 2005 Cadillac CTSV. When I initially bought it, I financed 31,000 and was tired of being beat to death to make the $600 car payment. Finally sold it today. What should I replace it with? I want something fun - the caddy was fun. I only want to spend 20,000 and It has to be new enough to be financed.
Some ideas...
06-07 reg cab short bed chevy or gmc, 5.3 auto.... give it a good stance, then turbo it. Still deciding on 2wd vs 4wd.
Another ctsv.... lol.
anyone?

I thought about that. Unfortunately, I traded a c5z in on the CTSV because I have a daughter. Not sure a bank will loan on it either.
6 year old car? Not sure if bank is gonna loan on that.
And I KNOW a bank won't loan on that! lol.

I used chase and got my car financed at 4.4%. My credit union told me 7%.. They don't always have the best rates. You can always find (as I put my flame suit on) an new edge mustang GT. They can be had for way under 10K with decent miles. Keep the rest of the 10K as save it. Thats the best thing to do IMO. Save.
