How do I make my dream happen? I currently work from 9am to 7:30pm weekdays, so only weekends are open. Any suggestions for a side job, for example? Car is too old to do Lyft or Uber.

Translation: I'm shit at prioritising

Oh, sorry, was I supposed to move out without a mode of transportation?

You should just stay at home if you can't see what's wrong with buying a car when you need money. You need mommy and daddy to look after you

I'm preparing to move out. I can't do that without a car. I bought a $1300 shitbox, not the new M series.

That's $1300 + insurance you could have put towards finding a place. A roof over your head is more important than a car.
>I can't do that without a car.
Of course you can.

Unfortunately, it makes no sense to move out somewhere and be totally unable to travel to where I work. Public transportation is not an option here

OP may not live somewhere with available public transportation. I would know from experience, without a car going anywhere is near impossible without a friend or family's help. He didn't get anything fancy so I wouldn't bag on him.
To OP, do you have anyone outside your parents that could help out? Or could you ask your parents if they could lesson your rent if you promise them you are saving it up for good reason? If not all I can say I guess is put away that $10 away each paycheck that would have been for something fun.
You seem like you're kind of fucked though. Find a sugar mama maybe? Lol
