I hear ya! I've been trying to sell my trailblazer for awhile now. I don't think I'll ever buy an American made car again. Its resale value doesn't even begin to compare against my old Honda and Subaru. Its basically worth what I owe and I even put a heap of cash down when i bought the tb. :rolleyes:

Plus with the gas prices...no one was a gas guzzler.

Yeah, I think its more the gas guzzler part than the American made part. Most american made cars are selling well, but the trucks,suv and etc are a dime a dozen. I live in a small town and you can drive out in the rural areas and see trucks, suburbans, yukons etc sitting out in front yards with for sale signs in them everywhere. Nobody wants to fill a 30 gallon tank for $3 + a gallon.

I would not mind filling a 30 gallon tank, but i would rather go without the 12 mpg. Which ironically is about all I get in my truck.

Welcome to the club Robin! I make my last payment this month (6 months in advance)

Well, the big tank and poor gas mileage go hand-n-hand. ;)

Its really just my personal opinion. This is my first American made car/truck. In the past I've always put money down, when it came time to sell them I'd almost always get back what I put down.

Not the trailblazer though. I put cash down, and this time its worth what I owe. No extra money for me for another down payment.

That's what makes the world go round. ;) We all have our opinions, just like I can't stand any car with the name "Dodge" on it. I've had alot of bad experiences with them, while others swear on them. If we all agreed it would take all the fun out of life. :)

Yeah, mine is worth far less than what I actually owe, now. I doubt I will ever buy a new vehicle again, they just aren't worth it!

I love me a foreign car!

;)

I'll never buy a new car - unless I win the lottery. The depreciation when you drive it off the lot isn't worth it to me. I'd much rather buy a year old previous lease car - still in great shape and saves you thousands of dollars! :D

Robin-

If I were you I would drive that "paid off" car until all you have left is the steering wheel!!
Congrats
