Best option is always to pay full but obviously very hard in this economy. I usually put enough down to keep my payments at or below $400

As high as reasonably possible. If you don’t have a car already then it’s likely difficult to save for longer due to the necessity of a car in most places. But if you already have a car that can get you by then I would try to aim for like 60% or more
