My dear Jeep is dying. badly. Who would have guessed this would happen the day of my 341 hearing..
1. better to go searching for a replacement now or after the discharge?
2. I have a cosigner willing, but will anything about the BK show on their credit rating as a result of helping me--and if so, when and when not?
3. will be moving this fall and will be isolated in many ways. need a dependable car. Buy a hoopdie for $3000 or use the $3000 as a down payment on a better used car?

Technically, no one is supposed to extend you credit will your BK is open.
