Message	Income Tax bracket Car Loan interest rate HELOC interest rate Amount in savings Amount invested Other revolving debt In this example (29k loan), if the interest rate on the HELOC with the tax savings was better than a car loan, and I had 29k lying around that I didn't want to tie up by paying cash, I'd consider using a HELOC to finance a vehicle. ummmmm..can we just post about cars?
