Questions for some of you guys that work at Corwin
-
Jake, you have my phone number (701.541.3484)...call me sometime and we'll figure out a time to look for a good car for you. I can help you out on any of the 3 corwin lots AND can help you find the car that is both fun and reliable and affordable (payments AND insurance). I'm there from 11:00 to 9:00pm tonight and 8 to 6 Fri & Sat.

Also, just because you don't see a car on our lot it doesn't mean that we don't have it. We have from 30 to 100 cars waiting to be cleaned up at any given time.

Truth.Trust me it gets really old paying $450+ a month on just a car. It may be cool for a while to be young and have a nice car but you don't want to put yourself in that situation. Find something thats a reasonable price and figure out what you can afford comfortably and find something for a little less because you will have to pay tax, title and license. Tax on a $27,000 dollar car is no joke plus insurance, maintenance.
DO NOT WAIST YOUR TIME WORKING FOR JUST A CAR!! Trust me i've been there.
still are pretty much lol

It's for sale...what do you want to know about it?

well i am looking to get about 6grand for my mustang and i have always been against the whole leasing and loan kinda shit because i dont wanna be in debt but my step mom thinks i should sell it and use this as a stepping stone to build some credit and this way i will have a newer car with less milage and we wont have to worry about any major problems soon and stuff. She told me to look with about 10-15 grand on my mind but i might as well get something nice right? And i told her i don't want to be spending $400 a month on a car payment but like she said i will be making 2500-3000 a month so its not all to much.

You'd be surprised what other priorities you have in life...plus a car is basically the WORST investment you can make. Get a small credit card, pay your bills with it, pay it off every month, and thats how you get credit without losing your ass. At worst case scenario, I wouldn't rush this until you completely understand what you are getting yourself into with a car payment...

You going to be around tonight Jake? We I'd love to help you decide your best path.....that might mean that you don't buy from me and I fine with that. I can assure you I will direct you in the direction that makes the most sense for you.

good luck getting 6k on your mustang for trade.Agreed, a friend of mine traded in a ~02-03 Mustang V6 with like 30k miles on it and got $3-3.5k for it, you won't get anywhere near that.
You sound like you are headed towards a horrible financial situation, and your step mom sounds like she gives horrible financial advice. Where are you going to be working right out of high school starting at 2.5-3k a month?? Is this before or after taxes?? It can be done, i used to make $4k+ a month in the summer, but most jobs you won't start out anywhere near that with just a high school diploma. I think you are in for a rude awakening in the real world.

If you know of a job that pays that much right out of HS let me know, I'll move down to Fargo and work with ya.

Actually idk about the whole financial thing. I took 5 classes school wise for financial stuff and i scored a 92% on a test which put me in the top 10% in the nation and i was one question from getting a free grand. I am pretty smart with my money for the most part. ( I work at ND Natural beef-Dakota farm, tender bison) i will be making $2500 to $3000 a month and pracs on the weekends so i shouldn't be hurting for money to bad. And my step mom did the same thing when she graduated she traded in her Grand am got 10k put 5k towards a 16k Gtp and paid off a 11k loan in a couple years and she is doing just fine.

We all graduated high school thinking we'd grab the world by the throat and make it our bitch buuuttt it's not exactly that easy. Why does it sound like your step mom is like 23?
Either way, just seriously think about your future. You talk about how much money you will be making, but have you thought about if you will actually LIKE the job for an extended period of time? Why don't you worry about staying at the job for 6 months to a year before you bank on a lot of money from it. Since it seems like it offers a pretty hefty paycheck, I have to believe it's not exactly rainbows and butterflies on the job.
