Not only that but just before the new year I got a review and a 10% raise so I will be pulling in more this year.
I did get help by living with my dad while working full time for a few years (When I first started working at this company I was only making 35k/year) but I saved up my money to buy a house and only after that the car that I have been wanting for many years. I prioritized getting the house over the car myself.

Congrats!
I did things backwards from that, because I started off with limited credit. I got taken on the car (7.34% for 72mo, but plan on paying it off earlier) in preparation of getting a better rate on a house (much larger principal/longer time financed).
In the long run, it will cost me around $14K to finance the car for the full 72mo, but I bet I save that much or more on the house after paying off the car boosts my desireability to the bank.
