Buy before filing?

[PurpleLid]

Me: moving from San Diego to New Jersey, might be filing bk within the next month or two (just waiting for lawyers to get back from the holidays.)

Should I get a car before filing while my credit is good? I could use one for 1) reliability, 2) all-wheel-drive for the new climate, 3) more space than my current sedan for the family catering business that I'm moving there for.

Thoughts?

Thanks for the help!

I'm not sure if there's a suggested time period prior to filing before acquiring a new loan. I bought mine 5 months prior to filing and it wasn't questioned.

I bought mine 2 weeks before filing and no issues.
