    It's nice to live at home and have dad and mom foot most of the bills.

    Sorry, gotta disagree. If you buy new you get a much better interest rate than you do on used. Right now you can even get 0% financing on some cars. With that kind of rate it's like free money. Youc an take any extra amount that you would put down and put it in a bond or even a savings account and earn interest on it since you the loan isn't costing you anything.

    Used cars don't have warranties either. You buy it, it breaks you pay.

    Under different circumstances I might answer different but with all of the incentives on new cars, if there is any way you can afford one and you need one then buy new.

    Don't ever buy program cars either. They get ragged.

    Spend about 7K on a used Honda and you dont need a warranty.
