<prompt> Human: So while getting an oil change, my wife wanted to know how much our car was worth and how much we could get for trading it in. Well turns out we owe around 12K.Trade in value is 8500. My wife and I were really dissappointed. And now we arent really sure what to do? Should we get rid of the car ASAP? Do we have to keep it until its paid off?Side note: we got dupped when we bought it. It was a two year old car with 65K miles on it. We were trusting a family friend and rushed into a purchase. It was our first car purchase without our parents help. It is a 2013 CR-V with 101K miles on it.  <response>: You say Well, I know better now and Ill do better next time. and then drive it til it cannot be driven anymore.
