I am a student and have a question about a car loan?

I am a full time student and am currently unemployed although I plan to have a job in the next few weeks. I need to get a car before I get the job, because right now I have been taking my dad to work on schools days, but if I have a job I might be at work whenever he needs the car. Walking is not really an option since my work is going to be 20 miles one way, that's also where my school is, my dad is gonna be the one paying back the loan, bu his credit is not good so the bank wants us to get a new car and the insurance is going to be unaffordable for me at that point. I know this is slot of info but I'm sure someone still will say just walk or something due to past experience with this site...

    Go to a towing yard and buy a impounded car. Usually just for for cost of the towing and storage fees. or go to a auto auction for a cheap used car. Or buy a motor cycle like we did back in the old days! No! you don't need a new car, that is pure "Bull" just to get to work and school.

    how much do you have in savings? you need a job to get money, and you need a job to get a car, no dealer is going to give you a car with your promise sandwich no money down and no job, thats not how it works. Like the other answerer said,, try to find a running car from a tow place for a few hundred bucks

    There are some buy here pay here used car dealers that will finance a used car for your Dad. The problem is they usually charge higher interest rates, have higher prices and a poorer selection of good cars. Good Luck

    get a closer school, job, and quit taking from your dad, he has to work to feed you and give you a place to live...you are not entitled to anything, why do these young punks think they are owed anything...

    EDIT: you are obviously a dumb *** to be asking questions on a site where you have received answers not to your liking before, jeez...
