Tips on Buying Cars: Trading In and Buying a New Car, hydundai, buying a new car

Question
I currently have a 2000 Hydundai Sonata, with about 42,000 miles on it.  I've owned it for 2 years.  I'm currently financing it, and have 3 years left to pay on it.  The payments are currently 250. a month.  I want to trade it in for a 2003 or 2004 Hydundai Santa Fe, when is the best time to trade and buy another car?  There is a little less than 7,0000 left on the note.  What are my options and will my payments be very high if I trade the car in now?  

Answer
I allready answered this and I am sorry it doesn't show . Sometimes they seem to get lost. I would keep the car for awhile, if It were me I would try to buy down that loan as much as I could and then I would trade.maybe in a year or two. I hope this answers your questions if you have more please ask, Also please rate my answers. And please do not hold me responsible for the time it took to answer. I really did answer this before!
