I was just wondering if any of you dental students are making car payments while in dental school?
I've got about 1 1/2 years left to pay on my current car, 1999 Nissan Altima. But it's got almost 100,000 miles on it and I'm wondering if this car will make it through dental school without blowing up in the next four year. By the time I'm finishing school the car will be 9 years old and about 180,000 miles or so.
I'm kind of wondering if it would be worth it to trade it in now, when I can still get a good loan, so I can get a newer car that wont be breaking down on me through dental school.
What would you guys do? Save money and drive old car, or get a low payment newer car?
