I'm BACK! 3 year SmartBuy is up..moving to Cali..what next?

[CaseyWhitcher]

Hey all I'm in Dallas, TX,

I was on here about 3 years ago excited about my new H2 that I wrapped for my company. Some of you might remmeber it's Pink. haha.

Anyway...

My SmartBuy is up this month. They want a final Balloon payment of 35K, or to turn it back into the dealer, obviously at a big loss, about 9-10K.

I love the truck, but, I'm not sure keeping it is the right idea? Financially times are tuff and we're moving to Cali in 13 months.

If I try to sell it on my own, I'm sure it would probably be tuff with the given market to sell?

I could re-finance it, and I would probably need to do it over 5 years, but that leads me to another problem. I'm moving to Southern Cali in a year, and I've heard the people out there are pretty Anti-H2's and I think alot of them get vandalized out there right?

Last thing.. if I keep it, do I go with an Extended Warranty? The dealer is offering it at 2500.

So... I'm hoping for opinions on my best move? Am I missing any options?

Do I

Try to sell it on my own.
Turn it in and pay out the loss, and buy another vehicle.
Keep it, refinance, and overpay on the Value by a ton, if so, do I get the warranty?

Thanks for any advice guys!

Oh yea, this is me
