this is what i thought and did not use credit cards for years. i was only able to buy a car with a co-signer. since then, i pay for everything with credit and pay it off all the time to build a credit history. i will need another car at some point.

It just seems silly to "force" people to use credit just for that. Out here credit cards are only used for international payments, if even that. I mean I don't have a credit card and probably never will.
