Biggest tip: dont be too proud - look at used/certified pre owned cars -cars depreciate the most in the first 1-3 years - you may not he able to afford your dream car, that's okay. Dont screw yourself to get something you CANT afford - Shop around, you may get a car that isnt the exact color that you want but it could be 4k less

I went in 7 years ago today and I've seen a lot of people doing some of the same thing you mentioned, getting expensive cars they can't afford. My first car I got when I was a 09 Hyundai Sonata, there are some honest dealers out but most new airmen aren't patient enough to wait. I still have that car to this day and it did help boost my credit score up.

I agree with your financial advice to young airmen, but I don't totally agree that they should avoid fun cars. For many of them, their young, single years will be their only opportunity to own a fun car until their future kids leave the house. I'm pretty biased being a car guy, but I did drive cheap cars and avoided having a car payment until I was a TSgt. I'm an MTI now so I'll be sure to brief all my trainees about the car buying process.

Craigslist is pretty good. I got both of my cars from there. My first car was an '03 Acura CL Type-S with Navigation and six-speed manual. It was kept in pristine condition by the previous owner and was only $3800. My second car is an '03 Infiniti G35 sedan, also a six-speed manual. It was a bit pricier, and not as well kept, but it runs very well. If you look around a bit, and you know what to look for as far as quality, you can find yourself a steal.

+Grant Covington keep your car and ship it. I left mine back home cause I'm stationed overseas on an island and didn't want the rust to ruin my truck. so I bought a small commuter car but I regret not bringing my truck. the only downside is that you usually have to wait a month overseas for your car to arrive and maybe about 2 weeks to a month stateside. my opinion is to save your money and keep your car until it dies or you have money to afford to get a new car. Hope this helps!

Should I keep my car? I'm currently leasing a car (almost two years in) that I really like, and would like to eventually just own a car one day that I no longer have to pay for (even if that means I'm not driving it for a while). HOWEVER, the company I'm leasing the car from said that if I'm going into the military, they offer an option where I can just give them back the car and break the lease with no penalties (except for losing the two years of payments I've already made). SO... is paying off the car a good investment? Or should I return it and figure out something later?

I know a few CCTs who aren't raking in that much, they stand to make a ton from bonuses if they re up after their contracts are up but don't receive a base of 70k and certainly don't after taxes and normal life expenses.
