How do you feel now that the car you owe $20k on just dropped $5-6k in value overnight? You thought you were upside down before? Now you're proper fvcked if you want to sell it before you actually own it!!! :p

Most people that buy new are upside down. I traded in a 1998 F-150 with 25,000 miles on a lot lesser vehicle. They guy was shocked to see he had to give me money. :)

This was in 1998, the last new vehicle I owned.


I have since bought a new vehicle for the wifey, but not for me.

True, but those who were slightly upside down are now even more in the hole. Must suck being a GM badge whore right now.

Who said anything about investments? It does suck knowing that you can't even get what you owe on it on trade in though. Kind of eliminates the option of trading up doesn't it?

Fortunately, I'm not in that boat on any of the cars I own. :p

So did you make this thread because you are a hardcore GM hater, or just to be a dick?

Try selling a GM on your own...trade in is probably your best bet, at least you can unload it quickly. :laugh:

But with GM cutting prices so dramtically, you'll see sales slip with Japanese and European cars forcing them to reduce prices also ;)

I don't think it's mutually exclusive.
