    What are you doing this is going to hurt! You need to be driving a $2,000 Saturn for a while bro. No shame in it, put these purchases on hold unless you want to be another repo star in 9 months. Car prices are going to be dropping soon.

    You’re completely upside-down on your current loan. You’ll be screwing yourself if you trade it in now

    American financial decisions right here in one picture. Why would you even need to ask if this is a good or bad deal. Its a horrible deal. Common sense

    Don’t buy a new car until at minimum you’re not underwater on your current car loan

    Gotta love the dealership motto “come for the price and stay for the service.” It seems like they are getting serviced.

    That’s like 100k after loan interest……… just no… 1000$ down at 1572 is 113,400 over the life of the loan. I’d find out if you can just refinance your existing vehicle some how with your bank or Extend the length of the loan and maybe put 1000$ down to it.

      No matter how you look at it, but 113k for a Sienna seems mind boggling. That used to be used supercar territory, German Big 3 luxury money.

      I cannot see any world where this makes sense when used CPO options from a reasonably reliable brand exist.

    What’s wrong with a 2019 Highlander with 53k miles? I think you need to keep that car until that negative equity disappears. You are digging yourself a bigger hole, a 2019 Highlander is an excellent car and nobody who truly matters cares what you drive.
