Talk about murphy's law.......

so i found THE truck. 2002 dakota 4 door with the V6 and low mileage. hate the color, patriot blue, but everything i'v been looking for.
so i leave the guy a deposit and head home to call my credit union for a used car loan. well, i cant get a used car loan for a car older than 2004 so they tell me i can take a personel loan at 14.5%. so the truck would end up costing me an extra $4,000. bucks because it's too old.
i guess old mr murphy doesnt want me to have a truck. it's getting a little cold riding my bike to the train station every day.
this sucks.
BLAH!

I have been using use penfed.org for years. Not sure if they have that limit but worth a shot. They currently have 2.9 on used cars online.

Chuck what about a new one with zero percent financing .... just mabe order something strip down bare bones , thats what I did when I bought my frist brand new truck .....it was a ford f150 drove it for 6 yrs then traded it for a 250 utility body....or mabe a lease that keeps the payment low and with ur short comute they wont kill you with mileage I'm no financial wizard but just a thought.

[lumberslinger178]

spare that looks like a real nice truck.
