    I’m trying, waiting on the bank now to see what I qualify for. I’m no genius when it comes to credit score ratings and all that so when I traded pickups recently I was shocked when they said I had a low score and I’ve never made a late payment and have paid off every bill I have except for a vehicle payment and have no credit cards. Then my wife explained it all to me, thank goodness for her or I’d never figure this stuff out.

    I had like 823 score I’d built over years and years and years. Then when I moved my business loans into the business name then over time I lost all my personal credit. I don’t have any credit cards or anything.

    I ended up having to get a loan on my pickup for $5000 and become an authorized user on my father in laws credit card. LMAO. I’m back to nearly 800 here a few yrs later. I still owe like $300 bucks on my truck. :D

    I thought once you build credit that it never goes away. Wrong. You gotta manage it as well. Or make so much money you never need a loan again. That’s my goal. ;)

    Plus when you sell it in a couple of years to get in something newer, the buyer will have more confidence in the purchase because it is covered by a warranty.
