In some instances, yes. Depends where else you're invested and what that cash could be doing for you instead of being sucked into the depreciation mill. Those with cash can get financed easily without issue, and that's what I was alluding to earlier.

well i dont have awesome credit, and I got approved for my wifes Yukon with 0 down, and I didnt trade in a car. If you have good credit and a job, the banks have no reason not to finance you, they will make money off the interest. I think one thing they might look at is where you work, there is no way I'm losing my job.

I thought about getting a new Camaro, but, if GM ever switches to 4 bangers for the Camaro's, I'll keep my 5.7, put on some long tubes, and flip off the tree huggers.
I dont want to get political either, but the top states for forclosures are in California, Florida and New York. The top socialists states in the country, as well as the top immegration states as well. They deserved to lose their home, period. No sympathy at all, black and white and right and wrong. The facts speak for themselfs.

For the 10% that lost their jobs, its bad, and they can go thank the people that didnt have the money in the first place to buy a the home.

As far as firing Wagoner, its stupid, where does Mr. Obama think hes knows more about handling a business when he has never had a job in his life?? The Govenment is pathetic.

Exactly, I have several friends that just went out and bought trucks and got a loan. All the media is exploding what actually is not going on, and when all of the media is one sided.. thats all your going to hear.

Those numbers don't mean ****. LA is full of actors, every actor is on unemployment (or listed as unemployed) because you are hired and fired everyday. Just bull **** numbers to get more money out of people...

I got my car loan in december when everything started to crash hard, had my job for only 4 months, still got my car loan yeah the interest was higher than I wanted but seeing that most places wanted 10% I was like ok 8.25 is sufficient 2.5% higher than what I had on my last car, my credit score is pretty damn perfect, and my income to debt at that time was off that damn apartment was expensive.

Moral is I got a car loan when everyone started freaking hard core and it was really tough to get a loan, my payment isn't that high it is ~$200. my insurance is low cause I have no tickets, no accidents that were my fault, and i barely drive the car.

Loans are still there, it is just if you have a solid job, and a solid credit score, also payment history and what kind of credit do you have, like have you maintained the credit rating for a couple years, I have been building mine for the last 6 years, so no issues.

Yeah he didnt really own the Rangers. He was more of a figure head, someone they put down in box seats next to the dugout so that he could get camera time and publicity for the team. I think at his highest he owned maybe like 6% of the team, but he was more well known than the other owners so they tossed him out there like a show puppet.

I think GM will be ok. There is too much opposition from most of the public for them to turn into a Toyota like company. Obama, whether you like him or not, is just doing what he feels is best for our economy at this moment in time, just as FDR did when he was in office. And if you look at the two so far, Obama is pretty much going step for step from the FDR playbook. I wouldnt start fretting over spilled milk .... yet.
