A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Should I roll negative equity into my next car loan?
Rolling negative equity into a new loan is generally not advisable because you start the new loan already underwater. If you owe $5,000 more than the car is worth, adding that to a new $30,000 loan means you owe $35,000 on a $30,000 car on day one. This can trap you in a cycle of negative equity. It is usually better to pay down the difference separately if you can.

Had a wonderful experience working with Vantage and Dave A. in particular. Dave came as a referral from a neighbor and he was very straightforward and helpful throughout the entire process. Once I decided to move forward with a lease, Dave was super efficient and we got everything done within a few days!

David Alesso made the impossible happen! My family grew & my SUV got very small FAST but I still had a year left on my lease. This was my 2nd time using Vantage Auto Group & David worked a miracle! Yet again, everything was very seamless & easy & my Telluride was delivered right to my door!
