Almost traded in my xb this weekend. Almost.
I went up to Carmax to get an appraisal on my 05 BSP 5-spd xb with 40k miles and they offered 9500. I still owe about 5k on the loan so I'd have about 4500 cash after paying it off. I was fine with that part... only problem is that I can't find another car I want that I can afford. I think i'll keep her a bit longer - or buy a motorcycle but i'm scared of dying on those things.

You have 5k more to pay off the box. You want to sell it, but not make payments on anything else. Just what do you think your gonna get for 4K after you pay taxes and any other closing costs? A Yugo, thats what youll get.

Gotten any low interest balance transfers in the mail lately? That's how I bought my car a year and a half ago. 3.9% for life, no fees, no minimum purchases required. It's getting harder to find them, but it is a possibility. Pay off the loan with a convenience check, and make your payments to the CC. The plus side is you can adjust your payment, and you get the title to the car.

Nah no low interest credit card junk mail lately. I don't use credit cards after I got in some trouble with them - just cash and a debit card these days.
Anyway, i'm keeping the box... I just bought a set of NGK Platinums and some Royal Purple gear oil for the tranny.
