Tote-the-note lots are the biggest ripoff in the world. If you ever do get a car with free and clear title from one of them you will have paid 10X more than it's worth.

If you need a check stub and a company or business that is verifiable I can help you out no problems. Just let me know what amount of income you want to make and a company name ect, ect and I can have you a check stub via email in a few days.

But then again they are taking a much higher risk and are financing people who generally fuck up, but when it comes down to it, its no different then Wal-Mart versus Walgreens. I always pay 2 to 3 times more for a product at Walgreens then I pay for it at Wal-Mart because it is a convenience, yet I never feel ripped off because I know what I am getting into and it is my choice.

You girls make $150-200 an hour. Just save up $5K-$8K and pay cash for a good used car on Craigslist. You can easily find a guy friend who knows about cars to go along and make sure it's mechanically sound. Originally Posted by trynagetlaid

Originally Posted by Brooke WildI wouldn't classify the place you recommended as a true tote-the-note lot. They say 'financing available on selected vehicles'. A true tote-the-note lot wants you to finance through them, with a payment due every two weeks, and if you are one day late they will repossess. They even install GPS locators and remote fuel shutoff devices to make location and repossession easier.
.. and if you are one day late they will repossess.The used car dealers with which I am familiar don't really want their inventory back, they want it turned over quickly, and their money invested in the unit back ASAP. They do keep track of the customers and their inventory once they have sold the vehicle, and they do repo due to late payments, but it has to be more than a day.
They want you to fuck up and miss a payment because that's how they get rich - by selling the same car 3 or 4 times. Originally Posted by trynagetlaid

I just went to two dealer auctions and saw no great prices the guy told me I would get a car at 1/3 the price but the dealers bid the cars up so high at best you get 1k off. Then you only have like 15 seconds to look at the car and you have to fight for that time. They drag anything another dealer couldn't sell out there some wouldn't even run they pulled it in with a forklift. I know a lot will sell as is too but at least you get more time to look and research the car.
There is another option: barter.Someone always feels like they are getting screwed and not in a good way. A lot can happen in 50 weeks
Let's see, a $10,000.00 used car
Sessions at $200 each
One session per week
50 weeks X $200 each= $10,000.00
Find a barter friendly dealer and give him a freebie each week, and your car is paid off in a year.
Or, you could give two sessions each week and get a $20,000.00 car.
Damn, the possibilities are endless. Originally Posted by tikkler33
