I can’t afford a used car. My dad helped me buy my current car and if it does I’m fucked.

2 years ago I was in need of a new truck (work related). Practically all the used stuff that's worth a dam was priced not far behind if not more than new. The kicker, the new ones I was interested in weren't available...so I was forced to buy used.
