Happy 2020! If you're in the market for a new car, today is a great day to shop. Dealers are often willing to accept lower prices to make end-of-month/year quotas. Just don't get suckered into saving a few hundred $ on the purchase price but over-paying by thousands on financing.
Happy Thanksgiving! We are so thankful for you - our customers, readers, subscribers, followers, and (sometimes) critics. If you're planning to hit the road, drive safely!

Should I take out a 7 year car loan? No. By stretching out the loan, you'll end up spending a lot more overall.

Happy Labor Day! Is it really a good day to buy a car? If you want a 2019 model, yes. But if you want (or get suckered into buying) a 2020 model or you're looking for used, no. Dealerships will be extra-busy, which means they'll be less likely to negotiate.
Will the Fed's rate cut yesterday help car buyers? Not by much. Dealer markups have a bigger effect than a .25 rate drop. And car loan rates don't always follow the Fed. It might be a good time to consider refinancing your car loan, though. #FederalReserve #economy
