<prompt> Human: My dad died recently, leaving a car loan for 17,000. The vehicles value is around 14,000. He bought it back in Feb or so. Were trying to decide on options, keeping in mind that he wont have much in his estate 10,000? and want to lose as much of that as possible to Carmax.A We legit go to Carmax and deal with whatever they decide, which is unknown to us because weve never done this before.B We try to sell it really not into it, but will considerC We abandon it let them repo it -- possibly in the Carmax parking lot itself.We can see them taking out the difference from the estate from all of these instances unless were lucky enough to sell it for 17,000. It is a 2015 Kia Optima with about 30,000 miles and in great shape.What do you all think?  <response>: This is a legal question on how to handle someones estate. It is complicated and involves rules that vary from state to state.Generally speaking you want to speak to the creditors and not just abandon cars in their parking lot. They arent going to bite, they probably has a department that deals with this sort of thing all the time. Too hard for you to sell it, you dont have the title and it isnt going to be worth more than what he owed.
