the big question is (if you chose to have car payments after giving them a down payment and some other upfront $)

Can you earn miles for car payments?...
I bet you can! So set up a loan for any remaining $$$ you cannot get miles on up front. Go w/that option and then pay it off using whatever means (credit card, etc.) if that gives you miles when paying your loan.

If speed is not your thing, distance may as well be. Enjoy and embrace it all!
