Buying a car on cash while job searching

I'm considering buying a car in cash to avoid debt, but I'm not sure if it's the right decision

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew if my savings would be enough to cover car expenses and living costs"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider your financial situation and goals before making a big purchase like a car"
