bad credit always follows non payment, so you mind as well just drive it untill they repo it.

there is also another way, take it somewhere safe, key it (make scraches on the doors and bumpers) so that insurance will give you a check for the damages, usually it's like couple grand because they would have to paint the car if it's scratched up, then pay the next couple of payments of your car. Advantage: your car wont get repoed, disadvantage: you will be driving a scratched up car.

a friend of mine suggested that we strip the whole car and run it into a pond. its a brand new car though. i haven't payed for two months now so i guess i already have bad credit. oh wells...by the way my moms the co-signer so i was wondering once they repo it..she gotta pay for it no matter what?

she's gonna have bad credit, and no she doesn't have to pay for it, but they might sue her for money, so i guess the best way is sell it and pay the difference. If you owe 16k and you get 12k for it then paying that 4 k is better than having bad credit.

2 months isn't bad.........they will threaten you after like 2 or 3 months. Just send them some money to shut them up. The don't pay for another 2 months. You have about 5 months left to play with it

btw.......... they will be after your mom....don't be a dick and ruin her credit too.
