[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, am I the only one who thinks it just plain stupid to pay cash for a car if you can get 0% financing? Why loose the opportunity for you money to earn even a tiny bit of interest ? I'm not saying don't have the cast in reserve, but why not take advantage? [/quote] I agree with you. I think the adamant advice to only buy cars in cash is outdated, from a time when car loans were offered at 5+%, and the advice is geared towards people who otherwise are buying more than they really can afford anyway. With 20k in cash, buying a car is not the best use of that money. I earn a higher return in my retirement account and even basic savings earns you 0.5% which is more than the nothing you're being charged by the dealership with their financing. [/quote]
