Cars for Single Moms

Single moms usually have a lot of responsibilities with their finances. They have to pay the bills and work. But in order to get to work, you would need to have a car in most cases unless you live in a big city where public transportation is not an issue. Cars are no small expense. Even if you could afford a car, you still have to pay the taxes and insurance on it. All these expenses can quickly add up. It would be no surprise then that mothers would want to find cheap cars for single moms or at best free cars for single moms.

To find free cars, you may to check with your local church. Tell them your situation and see if they will be sympathetic to your plight. Some other organizations may also help you get a free car.

If you cannot find a free car, you could still find cheap cars. Websites that connect buyers with sellers are Craigslist and Autotrader. Both are free for the buyer. You can look for the type of car that you want and also you can sort according to the price. When you buying a car, you want to make sure you buy a reliable car. Look for Japanese made cars like Hondas or Toyotas. Hyundai and Kia are also pretty good now. Some American cars can be good like Ford. They are usually fairly reliable. If you want the cheapest price for a car, you should buy from a private seller as opposed to a dealer. When buying from a private seller, be sure you take the car to a mechanic that you trust before you buy the car. You do not want to end up paying a lot of repair costs on the back end after buying a lemon.
