Auto Buying Tips and Secrets - Trade In Information
DO YOU HAVE A TRADE-IN???
Value your car for retail and trade-in using one of the online sites like kbb.com, or simply call your local bank, they will give you the information within minutes and it is free. Remember to be honest with yourself and picture your cars value through the eyes of another. Your own personal possessions also hold more value to you than those belonging to someone else. Consider your car's physical condition, along with the maintenance and mechanical upkeep.
Don't make your trade-in be part of the negotiation on the new auto you are planning to purchase. Keep the true values of each separate. Your vehicle should be worth, at the very least, approximately 15% less than its whole sale value at trade-in.
