Default So how is your credit?

I have one more payment on my car and I'm done. I made it 4 solid years without missing a payment or even being late. The last time I checked I had a 648 FICA score. I'm not sure what I'm going to buy, or if I'm going to buy something, but I'm sure I'll get a better APR than the 23% I had on this loan! I have like 7 revolving accounts(credit cards) and one installment account(car loan). I know having that many revolving accounts isn't the best thing to do, but I like credit.

Go get a credit card and start paying for your gas with it and pay it off at the end of the month. In todays society you NEED credit.

This is the reason I'm asking:http://www.lexus.com/lexusConfigApp/lexsummary.do

Congrats Doc, must be nice only having one payment left! I have about four years to go but I hope to get it knocked down to two with some extra payments. But overall I have no credit problems but I'm also still working on paying off a line of credit.

I've been wanting to do this for quite some time. I'm not ready to get involved with 19.8%APR though. If there WAS a reason I couldn't pay something off, or whatever, I don't feel like getting raped.
