lumberjim, I'm glad you chimed in because I have a question for you.

I have my eye on a car, and went so far as to fill out the online credit application for the dealership. Having had financial problems in the past, I hoped that my current income would play into it. I've heard nothing back from them. Another dealership, for which I did NOT fill out a credit application, emails me all the time.

I wonder if it's just slackage on the part of the first dealer, or if there is a problem. Do they tend to even look at those things as more than a way to start contacting you, if it's your first contact?

What do you suggest I do? They want to sell a car, right? The car is well within my price range, and payments would be no problem, but if they won't finance me I don't know what other options I have.

Any help would, um, help.
