Buy a 2016 Subaru Outback for $16K with financing

I'm struggling to afford the monthly payments and still have a significant gas bill

What I wish I knew
"I should have considered buying a cheaper, older vehicle from the start"
If I could tell you one thing
"Research and budget thoroughly before making a financial decision, and consider alternative options"
