Well I only have the one card (AmEx). I closed my Wells Fargo card even though I knew it would ding my credit score a little, just because I didn't want to deal with them anymore. Just paid off my car loan last month, never had a late payment on anything, and I'm not carrying a balance, so I'm doing good.
 Just wanted to make sure that my CL wasn't too high before applying for mortgages a year+ from now. It's 8k currently. -------------------- |

I got a pretty good rate and I bought my house before my truck. |
