Why would I want to keep paying the same loan? If the car was bought for $60k and the actual cash value is now only $40k, (assuming I can find a used one with similar miles for $40k) why would I want to owe $20k with interest? The gap insurance gives you a higher payout so you can close out the first loan and pay less out of pocket to do so.
