Two, a car's failure rate is a bathtub curve. Your highest failure rates are when the car is new and when it's reaching its end of life. The stable phase of a car's life is in the middle. This holds true for any manufactured product. Lastly, financing a car is brilliant over paying cash. That cash is best served invested elsewhere as it will outpace the apr cost associated with a car loan. Buying a car with cash is smart for one thing - telling financially dull people you bought a car in cash. Credit is your best friend as it provides you with the needed leverage to punch above your weight.</p></blockquote><p></p>
