Getting Rid Of The Silvy

[zxcv]

So anyways, I was thinking about getting rid of my '07 Silverado.

 

Here's the thing.

 

$1,984,850,000 Left on lease payments.

 

Anyways, I'm paying $841,874,982/month right now for 2 more years.

 

The dealer can get me into an '07 Grand Prix for $567,564,445/month finance for 5 years. (that's with the lease payment worked into the price)

 

Gas = 30785mpg (Grand Prix) vs 1747mpg (Truck)

 

Insurance is 898564546540 bucks cheaper/year for the Prix.

 

Is it worth it?

 

 

EDIT: RESOLVED ISSUE I AM KEEPING THE TRUCK! LOL!

No it's not worth it, not unless you drive more than 100k miles a year. Keep your truck.

Gas = 30mpg (Grand Prix) vs 17mpg (Truck)

 

 

It's near impossible to ever come out ahead when getting into a new vehicle for gas mileage reasons anyway, but more importantly i want to say:

 

 

If you get a consistent 30MPG out of a Grand Prix, I will eat my shorts.

No its not worth it.

 

I was in a similar situation and when I took a step back and did the math I realized that its not worth it at all.

what about those trips to the hardware store? How many sheets of plywood can that Grand Prix haul?

okay okay, I'll keep the truck!

 

Sheesh!

 

 

[MS3DALE]

Yeah...Keep the truck

Where did you get the 30MPG figure??? A GP is rated 18/28 and I seriously doubt you do all highway driving, so your realistically looking at a combined average closer to 22-24MPG. Plus with a 5 year finance with the lease rolled in you will be upside down on the GP until the last year of the note, meaning you'll have to roll that amount (or pay it up front) if you want a new vehicle within the next 48-50months.
