Car Buying Questions
Current car (2014 Cruze Diesel) is about to roll over 100k and to be honest I am ready to get rid of it.
Now, the downside is, car is worth maybe 6k but I owe 8.6k (dumb move on my part)
Looking to get a new Kia Hybrid, and my question is, do I bother taking the car to trade in with it being underwater?
Or do I bite the bullet and pay it off then trade in?
Or try to pay it down to 6k area and list private sale wise?

See what the dealership can do for you. It doesn't hurt to find out. Maybe they can make you a good deal.
Or at least roll everything into a new loan and it won't look as bad lol

Depends what the financing rate is on the new vehicle vs what you're paying.

Update, dealers offered ~4k for trade in and it was sold privately to a poor soul who will remain nameless.
But, snagged this lil car for a solid price IMO. Played the semi living out in PA card to my advantage and avoided the atrocious NJ dealer "fees"

Li ion batteries bro.
Drove it back to apartment from dealer this evening and other than feeling like a old person figuring out the buttons, thoroughly like it.
