ADVICE : somewhat long post, sorry.
So I’m stuck in this situation with my car, I have a 2013 Nissan Altima I’ve been trying to trade. I still owe on it and since I was out of work for 2 months and things hit my credit, I didn’t have the money so of course my credit suffered.
The only thing I’ve been advised to do is give my car back and my credit isn’t to where I can’t repair it, I’ve paid things down so it hasn’t hit yet. So that isn’t a option to me( not judging anyone who had to)
I’m stuck in a hard place b/c idk about you but I don’t have $7000 to put down or a co-signer w/excellent credit.
I can’t get my kids around safety anymore &&& my husband car is on its last leg.
I hate feeling like there’s nothing I can do && nowadays these “car salesmen” don’t care to help anymore, they just try to help their pockets 💵💵💵
It’s bugging as well cause you’re talking about a person that has paid everything on time& unfortunately beyond things I could control I hit a financial slump.
At this point any advice is welcomed
Not sure where you’re at but search for a carmax near you. They will do everything they can to help you out and you don’t have to have excellent credit or outrageous down payment usually
I would take previous posters' advice and go to a car max. I had a navy friend that had 3 cars in four years from that place because she was able to get them to give her a decent amount for the cars that she was upside down on.
You'll most likely have to eat some of the cost and roll it into your new loan though since your credit isn't so great. Just make sure you do get a car that you can keep for a long time so you're able to pay it off and not end up struggling in the meantime. Good luck.
Your situation can't be any worse than my ex husband's...he had rolled two previous cars into a truck and was paying $700/month for 7 years.
Have you tried posting and selling on craigslist or facebook?
No I haven’t, I owe a lot on that car loan tbh && $11000 is too much for that car. It’s in great condition cause I don’t play about my cars but it’s not worth anything

@mommin.it, they aren’t like a regular dealership. Upfront and will let you know your options! Good luck
I feel this pain I’m trying to sell my leased car hubby and I decided I should quit my good paying job and with the baby on the way I can’t afford the payments anymore. I want to just give it back and say eff my credit but everyone tells me they make you pay for it anyway. So I get your pain I hope you find a solution girl!
Yea don’t do that.
I know there’s got to be another way.
&& you too hun seriously, it’s stressful
@valerie_jean, I still owe $11,000 && b/c I need a 3rd row, I have 4 kids
@mommin.it sounds like the car dealership is just trying to screw you over. I would take it around to different dealerships and see what you can get out of it. Other dealerships can pay off your loan if they'll give you enough, you don't have to just trade it at the dealership you got it from.
@nothingtoseehere, I’m going keep trying I have no choice
Im in the same boat sorta!! They have charity cars but the ones I've called weren't accepting applications at this time!
It really sucks, ppl who do what they supposed to do most of the time can’t get help.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
