Can I refinance an auto loan and use it to make a purchase?

by admin on December 25, 2009 · 3 comments

I have a Capital One auto loan, I’ve paid on time and more than minimum for 19 months now. I’ve heard of the concept of re-financing a current loan and adding to it to purchase another vehicle–probably not ideal financially but maybe good for me. Does anyone have experience with this?
I share vehicle situation with my fiancee–we share the cost of the first car we’re paying, and we’re looking to add a second. Seems relevant based on answers.

Absolutely you can, you will find that getting deeper into debt is never a problem. Finance companies love your money.

Properly maintaining your own vehicle is always cheaper and financially smarter than just getting another car .The other car that you want will also break and need repairs if it doesnt already.Learn to be happy with what you have and life will be much more pleasant for you-i promise.
