Should I trade in my SUV for a fuel efficeint car?
I currently own 2 SUVs that get 17/21 fro mileage. We have 3 1/2 years left on both loans. B/c of increasi- $1ng gas prices and the drop in SUV resale we owe more than its worth. I was thinking of getting a used honda or mazda 4 cyl. b/c there mileage is 24/35. If I trade in I will have to put up $4000 - $6000. This would drop my monthly payment by approx $100 - $150 per month. Not including the gas I would save. I drive 72 miles round trip to work. So, So I trade in or stick it out for 3 more years.

Lets see if I understand your situation...in order to get rid of the suv, you'd have to shell out $5000 more, but you say you would also reduce your monthly payment by say $125 (for sake of arguement). The return on that $5k investment would be (125/5000)*12 or aboot 30%. If those numbers are good, then its a no brainer.

Buy a small, older used car for about $2K. Stay with Honda, Acura, Mazda, Nissan or Toyota. Check consumer reports to find the "Best Buys".

Do not buy a domestic used car. (except Honda)

Do the financially sound thing. Save more money per month and put it away in an interest bearing secure place.

Yes, get the new Honda Civic. Mine gets 39 miles per gallon. Don't get the coupe, get the four door. I have the coupe because it's very sporty, but if you are looking for space, the 4 door would be best. It's awesome on gas.

I'm actually thinking about trading in my car for the new Pilot because I want more room in my car when I travel with friends.


son_not_jr
That is your choice. I would just because i could not afford gas and my job i go all over.


Marc
Yes

yes, but if your going to spend the money, I would get something even more fuel efficient. Like a hybrid toyota carery EPA est 40 MPG, I own one 36 MPG actual. Or a prius, which is cheaper and gets EPA est 60 MPG. My close friend has one and gets 56-58 acual. Much better fuel iffincency. I would buy a fuel efficient car if not for the enviorment, for the savings.

Yes, definitely do it! Not only would you save enormously on gas, but you'd be helping the environment.


Dan F
get a fuel efficent car

72 miles to work? get a fuel efficient car. SUV is for driving kids to school and back, not commuting to another city.

Sounds like a no brainer. Gas isn't going to get any cheaper (not much anyway).
I would wait a few weeks though...interest rates willl be coming down more yet.

In three years gas will be even higher. Dump the SUV's.
