How does a preapproved car loan work? I'm about to get a new car just dont know what yet. Want to get the loan today because Friday Im going to go look.

How will paying for a car loan on a repo car affect my credit score? My husband and I signed a $20,000 loan on a truck. The payments were behind and the car was in a wreck. The truck was repossessed and the loan company says we still owe $8000. The loan company offered a settlement of $2800 if we pay by the end of the month. Does this sound right to anyone? How would it really affect my credit if I pay off the loan now?
What are my chances of getting a car loan? I don't know my credit score, but I can give you some details. I have been working out of college for 7 months. I make $32000 a year. I have been paying rent and utilities for 27 straight months without any late payments. I also have student loans, of which I pay $55/month and my parents pay the remaining $120/month. I have one credit card with a $1000 limit and never missed a payment and owe $0. The only other thing I pay for (other than usual groceries, etc) is car insurance. What are my chances of getting a $12-13k loan for a car? If it helps, I will be putting $5k down on it. I may also chose to go private sale for the car, but will still need the $12-13k loan and pay the difference in cash. ALSO, important...I won't have a cosigner. I don't have anyone who can cosign for me. Thanks everyone for the initial responses. I have already resorted to the fact that my interest rate is going to be a little high. If I could get a rate around 10-12% then I should be good with the monthly payment. I calculated using 10% and was under my threshold payment-wise. I figure if I put 30% down on the cost of the car (minus taxes, title) then I shouldn't be upside-down on the loan.
How exactly does a car loan work? I bought a 2007 Toyota Camry last August. It is still appraised at $21,900 in the blue book.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Solve an argument - refinancing car loan AFTER making really large payment? If you're planning to refinance your car loan in a few months (at a MUCH lower interest rate) what is the logic in paying a large chunk of money NOW to the company that holds the high-interest loan at the moment? Seriously, I'm missing the logic here. Wouldn't it be smarter, if you have a chunk of money (which is equal to three high-interest rate car loan payments) why wouldn't you just make your normal payment for the next few months, refinance at the lower rate and THEN pay the big chunk of money?
