Which choice should I make?

[Burbanhunter 10+ year member]

Ok I have a few offers for my truck and they are not too bad, but I am trying to decide which one to choose. On one hand a guy is offering to put 3500 bucks down and pay the rest off, and on the other hand a guy is offering to trade me his 2004 Kawasaki 636. The motorcycle has 21k miles on it and is in good condition and comes with a jacket and helmet. I am still wanting to get a 01 suburban, so this decision is a tricky one. Reason being is that I could turn around and sell the motorcycle higher than I set my truck and because it uses waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy less gas and is more of a demand in the summertime I could pull it off. Let me know what you all think.

Never finance your boys. Always ends badly. Tell him to get a loan or its a no go.

If you can sell the bike for more than you are wanting for your truck, then isnt the answer obvious...? Why do people make all these retarded threads all the time, where they answer their own question?

Make sure you can move that Bike. I had a friend who made a trade like that, but a bike for a bike. It needed a little work but he said he could make his money back because it was summer and everyone would be looking. He fixed everything all minor stuff and ended up taking a loss on the sale. This was last summer. If you know you can sell it then do it, if not hold out until someone can either pay cash get financed through a bank. Never let someone make payment to you. Watch a couple episodes of judge Judy and you'll know why!

Got ya'll thanks and I have found a few suburbans that catch my interest that I could easily scoop up so I will be applying for a loan and if approved I will buy one of my choices and the buyer of my suburban will pay off my loan lol. Thanks guys I decided no on the motorcycle.
