With $80,000 in income, she will take home less than $5,000 a month. That would mean her potential car payment will be approximately 25% of her income. Why put a member of the family in a situation to ruin their credit?

If you need a co-signer, you should not be buying the car. Don't buy things based solely on a monthly payment.
I understand not all of us me included make a few hundred thousand some of you guys make. If a family member knows the cash I make or have saved incase and they know they are in good hands why not help its all about the credit to keep payments downand payment will be like 1/9th the money I make. ALL I am tryng to do here is is get oppinions on how or if it would work better under my name with a co signer then under a company . If I can't get this figured out I guess I will just have to give them what they want. Its a shame wife does ok too but our credit is not in a high teir, that will be no more . I will not be in this position again.
