My wife and I are in a pickle. She is getting creamed with a 324$ a month loan on her 2006 Equinox. I own a 2003 VW Jetta with very low miles but i owe $13,80 on it. Recently my check engine light came on, my a/c faded on us (Which I patched repaired) and the struts need to be replaced. The total costs will be bit over $1,000.
We shopped for other cars at dealers but the dealers aren’t willing to give us anything more than $3000 for my car. Even though one dealer did admit they’d be able to turn it around for almost 3 times that!
My wife wants to get rid of the headache, give it to the dealer, plus $1000 out of our pocket just to get into a leased vehicle. She doesn’t understand why I’d rather spend the $1000 myself to fix it and sell it myself, get possibly $7000 and be ahead of the game! She feels like it’s too much effort.
By the way I need a new vehicle because I am handicapped and have a hard time getting out of my jetta! Sometimes you can’t win and in this economy nobody wants to give you a break!
I’m just stressed, lost and had enough of the dealers!
