I have 100k total saved for down payment on a future home, and the 34 would come from this amt.

I am single, so really do not need a big car. What do you all think about me trading this car in for a small sedan costing between 15k and 20k--yes, I know I will lose money in the trade, but I wil have a paid off car.


Buy a certified 4-5 year old Hinda or Toyota on cash and use it as long as it lasts.

I bought 2019 HR-V for $30k total, including the interest I paid. This was already too much for me for a car. I paid off the 5 year loan in 3 years. I do have kids, but they fit in it just fine.
Would never cross my mind to overbuy and overpay.
I turned my $80k cash into $105k in few months this year. I don't want to sell more in 2023, but I will at the beginning of the new year.
What I do with my money is a choice, and what you do with yours is a choice. I don't know why you choose what you choose and then complain.

Honestly I would just pay off the loan and rebuild the savings for the home.

Are you tired of the payment or the loan?

And Jesus, a CRV costs like $40k now?


Interest rate is 5.something
7 year loan starting in 2022


Jesus. A 7-year loan? God, that was unbelievably stupid.

Yeah, ditch it and buy a used CRV or something. You should able to find a late model one with about 125k on it for about $15,000 or so.


Me again. Or just pay off the loan and keep the CRV. That’s actually the better move.

NEVER take a car loan for more than 4 years. Dumb dumb dumb.

Yeah I think probably the answer is to pay off the car, sell it, and then pay cash for a smaller and cheaper used car.

It’s going to depend on what the trim level is. But almost certainly less than 37k. Probably somewhere around 25 k.

Not sure, I have an educated guess but of course I will need to find out what the reality is.
Car is a Honda CRV

Depends how much you have to pay to turn in early and how long you plan to drive the sedan. If you get tired of the sedan in a couple years, it’s not as worth the switch. I’m assuming you would buy the sedan used?
