Default Nearly made a bad trade in purchase

Current truck is a 2011 Lariat w/ecoboost and lux package. For some dumb reason I decided to stop at the local dealership and test drive a Raptor. They were offering 32500 for my trade, i owe 26400. Even with the positive equity my payments would of been 740 for 84 months

They only let me test drive it around the block. The Raptor is the definition of sweetness. The engine is a gasoline powered orgasm and the truck just screams big ***** lol.

Called my wife with the payment info and to ok the purchase. She told me no, in a not so nice way.

Oh well, at least I've drove a Raptor. Maybe on day.........

It would have been interesting to see how that payment was computed, especially with that equity. I could understand 740 for 72 months, but even that would be high.

That's $62,160 in payments, plus what you were credited for the trade in, $6,100. That's would bring your total price for that Raptor to... $68,260. No wonder the wife said NO. That's one expensive orgasm.

Ya, I would wouldn't pay that for 72 months and an even balance let alone the 5k you would have been putting down.
