For a lot of people, a car is the second biggest purchase they’ll make. A lot more goes into picking a car than just color and style. We’ll talk with Native car sellers, mechanics, and financers about how to assess what you need in a vehicle and get tips on making decisions based on practical considerations rather than emotional ones. And we’ll get a checklist to help decide when to fix the ride you have and when to ditch it for something newer.
