But you see these same cars in the ads month after month after month while the asking price drops in increments.

Can you say PYRRHIC VICTORY?

yes ive seen that before, but unless i have a seriously bad trade and my 100k+ drops to like 10-20k i wont have to sell this car

also im paying out of state tuition at tx state, insurance, food, credit cards, and well everything else.
oh and car was paid for in cash so theres no monthly payments on that
