he should have given you a receipt (bill of sale at the time you paid for the vehicle, contact your credit union and stop payment immediately. He may skip out on you, do you have the car? Your credit union should have made the check payable to his lien-holder, instead of him?

Credit card. People tend to not fully realize how much they are paying in interest each month and how much it adds up. While paying off you're card may give you more "play money" each month, paying off your credit card is going to say you a whole lot more money in the long run. Paying the minimum every month will increase the amount of time you're going to take to pay it back (for some people it doesn't even cover the interest eventually.) Not only will you not be paying excess money in interest, but you'll need the better credit score as time goes on.. even more so with a new child on the way. A better credit card score can help in many many ways, like insurance (which is other based on your credit score.) Kill the credit card... best choice in the long run, and the future is what you really want to think about.

First, you never by a car without a clean title. If you don't then the credit union should have set up payment to the previous lender. If he didn't pay off the car, call your credit union and the previous lender to see what your options are. You can always apply for a lost title and explain to the state what happened. However, the previous lender may still have a lein on the vehicle. See if you can call them and figure everything out. If you don't know who it is, when you get your title replaced it will be listed at the bottom.

Yah I think you made a mistake here. BY issuing a check to the individual, you took his word that he would be paying off the car with that money. You don't know if the car has a clear title. Maybe it has a salvage title? You don't know this right now. I would have waited by the title to clear before you paid him money. keep your transaction between you and him, not between you, him, and his bank.
Your saving grace here is that you have a bill of sale. It may not be legally binding though. I'd contact a lawyer immediately.

You can check with your Credit Union to see if the check was cashed. I hope you have the bill of sale. You can check with the DMV to see who has the title. You can file a report with the police and I would get a lawyer if I were you. Good luck!
You do have the car? Right!

call his bank or the cops. let him know your not going to play games with him, and get real nasty towards him if necessary.
Ever hear of " Buyer Beware?"
