<prompt> Human: Hi guys, I just recently graduated medical school and I need a car. My school was in Manhattan so I didnt need a car the past 4 years, but Ill be needing it for residency. My salary for the next 4 years will be around 55,000 and I have no school loans. I know this subreddit says that its generally a bad idea to lease a car and I really dont care about having a flashy new car, I just want basic transportation. However, I dont know where Ill end up in 4 years professionally or regionally and I wont be driving much itll mostly be for commuting to work 5-10 miles away. I want to know your input, Thanks!  <response>: Buy a used car.
