I've seen this on Twitter several times. It just displays such a fundamental lack of understanding of how your credit rating works. Was the car your only debt? How fast did you pay it off? Do you have equity in a home? How long have you had your oldest line of credit (I have an credit account from my late teens/early twenties with a ridiculous, variable, APR that I only keep for this reason). If you understand how your FICO score actually works it's not hard to improve it and keep it higher.
