In the context of this particular discussion, "upside down" means instead of people having their loans paid off by the time they take out another auto loan for a "new" car they'll have residual debt incurred from that last loan carried over to the new loan.
Ones key financial goal should be to have little next to no debt whatsoever. Otherwise focus on minimizing debt before any additional spending or incurring further debt. How you manage debt determines your buying power, both present and future. That's what I was taught at least.
