Well , if you owe $3500 on a car and your not sure that your car is worth it, leave it to the dealer to figure out how to handle it. If your new car shopping rebates can eat it, or the Used Car manager can over allow for your trade to make a deal on the last day of the month. Don’t just pay it off, make it a negotiating point and get them to help. We are not talking about a lot of money becasuse you car has to be worth something. If you had a moderately high rate at 48 months it is $35 per 1,000 towards your payments. so if your car is worth nothing that means your payment will be an additional $122. Don’t let it come to that. Good Luck on your negotiations on your new car!
