Trading in a vehicle is a clever idea if you want a new car and refinancing your current vehicle isn't best or desired. Trading it in means that you can use the value of the car as your down payment. If you still have a loan on the car, consider how much you owe versus how much the trade-in value is worth.
Refinancing your vehicle is a promising idea if your credit score is better than when you got your loan. Refinancing can lower your payments but may extend the amount of time until the vehicle is paid off!
