<prompt> Human: My situation, in short: due to a mistake I made that my parents are probably going to find out about in the near future, Im probably going to be cut off by them pretty soon, probably around May but possibly as soon as a month. They pay for almost everything right now: food, car, gas, insurance, housing, education.I have a part-time job which snags me about 10,000 a year that Ive been working since August. I figure worst case scenario and they cut me off in a month, I need to at least own my own car if I want to be able to hold a job after they cut me off, and right now my parents hold the title to the car Im using, so its critical I get that as soon as possible. I can potentially mooch off friends for housing if I need to. The car costs 2500, so I figured Id get a full loan even though I have 1000 in savings. By the way, its only that low because the engine was replaced in it. The engine currently in it only has 40,000 miles on it, so its very reliable.So is it even possible that I can get a loan for 2500 right now? I plan on getting a full-time job after they cut me off. Im currently a student but I dont see that continuing after my parents cut me off. I have no credit to my name at the moment.TL;DR -- Parents own the car I use. I need to buy it because theyll be cutting me off soon. Its worth 2500. I have a part-time job, Im a student, and I have no credit. Can I get a loan and how?Assistant: Owning a car is probably the last thing on my list, in your situation. Then you have to pay fooor...wait for it...GAS. Insurance. Oil changes. new wipers. new tires. The list goes on and on, esp for a car only worth 2500 bucks. You definitely wont be independent anytime soon with that income and no credit. Youll be mooching on friends for a while. You better turn yourself in to your parents and plead for forgiveness, cause you are on the road to being broke for a looong time, and sad. Your story is all too familiar. Human: Why would you put a car so far down on your list considering you cant make ANY money without a car to get to work? And no, my parents are going to cut me off, no question.And if you read what I wrote, I dont plan on being independent with that income. I plan on getting a full time job on top of my part time job. I would almost definitely live with a friend of mine after this all went down anyway.  <response>: without a car to get to work? Train. Bus. Bike. Walk. Carpool.
