Justin asked:


I recently purchased a 2004 Ponitac GTO about a month ago. The car’s nice and all, but I don’t want to drive it in the winter. I can’t afford to have 2 cars. So I’m thinking about trading it in. But here’s the catch. If I trade in the car for a lesser value automobile, how does that work? Like would I have two car payments or would the dealship pay part of the current note and the remanding balance be put on the new car note? I hope this isn’t confusing.
