Considering Your Options
Since you have equity in your vehicle, it’s important that you get something out of it. You always have the option to sell the car. However, you can either sell it yourself to another driver, or simply sell it to the dealership.
If you sell it yourself, you’ll need to take on the responsibility of getting your vehicle’s value, advertising your car for sale, weighing out the offers and choosing the best one, and lastly, finalizing the transaction and handling the title transfer.
When you sell your car to our dealership, we take on the bulk of the responsibility. You simply bring your vehicle in and we’ll have it inspected and appraised!
Trading In Your Vehicle
Trading in your vehicle isn’t as simple as swapping out old for new. It’s more of trading in your vehicle for credit with our dealership. You can use this credit toward your new car financing with the down payment.
Of course, before you begin your experience, you’ll want to use our Value Your Trade tool. We have this tool available for you to use. Simply fill the fields with information about your vehicle with its make, model, mileage, condition, year, and VIN. You’ll then get an estimate of your vehicle’s Blue Book® value.
Our team will inspect and appraise your vehicle to confirm its value.
How Trading In Benefits You
The trade-in gives you value that you can use when you’re in the process of financing your next car. You basically use the value as your down payment instead of paying out of pocket. If you manage to have leftover value from the expected down payment, you have a few options with it!
You can:
- Keep the remaining value.
- Put it all down toward your new car to lower your monthly payments.
- Use the value toward a package or extended warranty.
