I crashed a car that I co-sign on with my father, I bought it from a used car dealership for 14k. Although the car could still drive, it wasn’t in its best condition and my father had the insurance company deem it a total loss. I am in college and I work full time, so Ubers don’t seem the most practical cost wise. Until the payout processes, would it be a smart decision to go ahead and get a new car before then, as it will look like I have two cars in terms of credit? Or should I tough it out until the payout processes?
