Default Re: Financing, what can be done?

I just played the negative equity game when I picked up my H3 (06 w/ 12K miles for $18K from the dealer). You are going to have a very very hard time rolling $26K of negative equity into a car that isn't worth half that. It's a percentage game (something like 105% market value of vehicle purchased = max principle loan for vehicle + negative equity).

Have you talked to your bank about refinancing your auto loan? I have done it in the past and it saved me ~$100/ month and shortened the term.

The other option is finding someone to assume your loan...
