In response to:
"if I were to surrender one of the vehicles at this point, would any deficiency after the lender sells it be claimed as unsecured debt? or does the deficiency just get written off in this scenario?"
Lender, once it disposes of the vehicle, will amend its claim to general unsecured for the balance of the contract. Assuming you are not paying 100% of all allowed claims, lender will just share in whatever pie your Plan proposes to pay to unsecured creditors. Not a big deal.

Question, with the gift, do you really need both of the other vehicles or should you amend your Plan to surrender one?

I am not overly worried about insurance cost for the M/C as it would save me about $150-$180 a month in gas based on what I am spending now (and what was budgeted in my plan).
Only concern with waiting to title in my name would be any hassle in registration/insurance.
I am certainly considering if we need both vehicles if the M/C thing happens. Thou it is tricky between having a family of 4 (will be 5 in a couple months...), and having a 37 mile commute each way. I anticipate that I would be able to use the M/C most days for commuting but could see cases where it would be fairly difficult.
Separate question, if I were to surrender one of the vehicles at this point, would any deficiency after the lender sells it be claimed as unsecured debt? or does the deficiency just get written off in this scenario?
Still trying to decide if the whole M/C thing is a good idea or not, I like that it could save gas $ and cut down on travel time (there are sections of my drive where normal traffic crawls and the carpool lane is going full speed).

Does anyone have any ideas on this? or is it just going to completely depend on the trustee?

Vehicle gift during Ch13 question
Here is my situation.....
Filed Chapter 13 in Arizona at the end of April
had 341 meeting beginning of June (no problems there)
No confirmation yet (thou my plan is pretty cut and dry and there shouldn't be any issues)
Attorney told me would be at least 6 months for confirmation because this trustee is slow, but couldn't think of anything that would even be questioned.
All payments are current to trustee ($1895 a month, 2 vehicles rolled into plan)
So now I have a situation where a friend may gift me an old motorcycle, no loan, no payments. This would save me a ton of $$$ in gas. Question is do I have any risk of a problem with the trustee here?
as far as I know there is nothing in a 13 preventing me from acquiring property after filing as long as I am making my payments.
only issue I would see is if the trustee does a title search before confirmation, as of the filing date everything matches.Tags: None
