Take the amount you were paying monthly on the smaller bills and add that to your current truck payment.
^this. Best advice ever. It's called the debt-snowball method.

I would say it depends on how much more of your loan term you got left. If not much longer, like a year or so, I'd say mod it. If you got awhile tho, or one of those ridiculous long terms... Then pay it off.
