Does anyone know where i can find info on getting my niece a van? She is 19 and has 3 kids and 1 on the way. Her parents won't help her. The van she is currently driving is a death trap for all of them.

Maybe a buy here pay here place? Most of them have no or small down payments and you can pay weekly/biweekly or monthly. Good luck to her! Sounds like she has her hands more than full!!

Here in PA, the Lutherin church donates cars. Maybe they have s similar program in your area.

Also, Goodwill auction cars in some places. Not sure
where, but I saw that you could donate your old car to them now.

I would also look and see if there are any public auctions in the area. They usually have pretty good prices and failry good vehicles.

Sometimes you can find a good deal on a tow lot. A lot of cars are towed that are never claimed by the owners. You have to be careful about having the car checked out by a mechanic, since they're sold "as is". But I've known a few people that got a great deal.
