Greetings,
So, I posted here a long time ago asking if the vehicle was worth getting or not and this was when I think they weren't out on the lot for long. I think right when the Sparks were being released..? Anyways, due to my budget back then the Sonic's were right out of my price range and the dealership refused to budge so I had to get my dad to cosign, I have a 6 year note, and I've been financing my vehicle for over 2 years now. Story goes:
I had to get a 2012 Ford Focus, I don't like the car as much as I thought I was. Was going to be my first car that was mine.. Well.. Half mine. Dad cosigned for me, then three 3 days later he goes and buy's the exact same car but with all the extra stuff with it. I guess I got caught up in the whole first new car thing and I just went with it without really thinking of the car itself. Been keeping my eye out on the Sonic hatchback. Is it worth trying to trade the Focus in for one? I thought about waiting for the 3 year mark and then seeing what the numbers look like if I were to trade it in..
Just wondering if that is a good decision or just wait?
Thank you.
P.S. Just my parents consider his car the better car and mine is just "plain" and I'm wanting to get my dad off the note.
