Is it easier to take over a lease or buy a car when I have weak credit?

About 10 years ago I got very sick and had to leave a very good paying job. My medical bills went up and income went down. No bankruptcy, but slow payment history, house went into foreclosure, but I was able to sell it to get out from payments. Moved to an apartment to cut expenses. Cheaper than my old house payments and utilities are cheaper. Since then my health has vastly improved, but I still have outstanding medical bills, and my prescriptions and Dr. visits take about 10-12 % of my monthly income. Now my car has died and I have not been able to save any down payment since I have been trying to pay off old bills. What are my best options for getting a decent running car that I can make the payments on without having a large down payment, and without getting over my head?

Answer: Wow, you've had a tough time recently but it sounds like you're doing all the right things to come back from it. I'd say you have a better chance of buying outright rather than taking over a lease. Check out your loan status at Easy Auto Loans. Don't forget to get a Free Car History Report for any car you buy.
