Who writes B&F Auto
Brian Foley writes and edits B&F Auto. His guides walk everyday drivers through title transfers, registration, car donation, trade-ins, first-car checks and financing basics in plain English, built from state motor-vehicle agency instructions, IRS and FTC consumer information and lender disclosures, and they say clearly when your state agency, a tax professional or an attorney should have the final word.

How we write
Guides are researched from state motor-vehicle agency instructions, IRS and FTC consumer information and lender disclosures. We explain each step in plain language, avoid inventing fees or legal claims, and say clearly when your state agency, a tax professional or an attorney should have the final word.
