I need more people like you in my life lol My JKU is my baby, but a Bikini JLU... GAME OVER.If you have the means, go get the Jeep that YOU want!Re taxes, you’ll pay what taxes Oregon charges at the time of purchase wherever you choose to purchase. Also, when you do get your vehicle, please post pictures and update this thread. You’ve been given plenty of great tips. Have fun!!
Slaes tax is based on where you register the vehicle. Bikini was just introduced so I doubt it will disappear for a while.
The bikini color looks great!! My local dealer had one with tan leather seats.I need more people like you in my life lol My JKU is my baby, but a Bikini JLU... GAME OVER.
You are in a better position because OR has no sales tax. You will not have to take a sales tax credit into consideration when you trade. You can sell to anyone without the sales tax consequence. Take it to Carmax and go online to Carvana to get real time quotes on what you can sell your JK for wholesale. You can sell to Carmax or Carvana outright because there is not a sales tax credit involved for OR. Or you can trade to a dealer. Even a dealer out of state but that will involve some work. Wholesale used car prices just took a huge dump very recently. Be prepared for a -10% offer. Or better yet, sell it yourself to someone for private part retail.
Probably due to the glut of used cars on the secondary market. I believe there are Autonation stores in the WA area. I'd try them too. Actually I would shop the trade to as many dealers as possible. I'd include used car lots.
Sahara is my goal, but if I found a Sport S with the right options/for the right price, I'd consider it. I've touched on this in some of my other posts, but I still have a loan out on my JKU, so there's a little technical issue as far as trying to coordinate selling privately and purchasing. I'm afraid my Jeep would sell quickly, thus leaving me without anything until I could coordinate getting the new one. But on the opposite side, I'm afraid that if I went ahead and attempted to buy a new one, without off-loading my current - I'll be stuck with two car payments, which is not an option.
Thank you! That gives me some hope! KBB says my JKU range is ~ 22-24.
It will take some work no matter what you do.
You might be surprised with valuation. Dealers might not offer as much. Used cars are dropping at a very unusual pace recently due to covid19 and the economy. About 10% less then normal in the last month. This is historic and has never happened before.
I tried doing the KBB outright pricing; not realizing I wouldn't get an estimate right then and there. From there, only one dealership in my immediate area was a buyer, and it was a VW dealership. They offered me $19k, which TBH, was fairly discouraging, because I definitely need more out of my jeep to make this even feasible in my mind.
Unfortunately there isn't an Autonation even within 200 miles of me. And the closest Carmax is 3 hours away. If I'm making that drive, I'll be bummed if it's for no reason.Cuyose said: ↑I tried doing the KBB outright pricing; not realizing I wouldn't get an estimate right then and there.
