Default Re: should you pay off a car loan before mortgage?

What is the interest rate on the truck loan? If it's very low, I personally would not pay it off.

Perhaps the answer here is none of the above. Do they have other debts? Do they have enough saved for emergencies? Do they have a large enough down payment for their home purchase? Are they contributing to retirement savings? Maybe the lump sum should go to one or more of these goals instead.
