Trade in values

[ytry]

Damn if the trade in values haven’t fallen off the cliff lately. I have been to three dealers in different states trying to trade for an JT and each offered me exactly the same price. NADA prices me at 48k trade in value. 33k is the offer from all three dealers. 21 JLU Rubicon, Snazzberry, 40k miles, ecoDiesel, everything but safety groups and power top. Excellent condition, warranty to 75k miles

Yes they dropped more back to normal. Not a great time to trade or sell.

I’ll point out some things you may not like.

1) It’s a JL, not JK
2) It’s heavily modified. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Take off everything you put on and sell off on FB marketplace or this forum.
3) Being impartial to your rig, look up the trade in value on KBB. I came up with $38k as avg trade in value.
4) The dealers are probably penalizing you for all your mods.
5) JTs are heavily discounted now so the dealers don’t have as much slush to play with.

Look at the deal as net cost and not two separate transactions. If a deal works for you, jump on it. If not, you have a pretty cool JLU built to your liking.

Where you located and what are you trying to get for it?

You're not going to get top trade value on your Jeep from a Jeep dealer. You need to sell it privately or find a "specialty" dealer for your Jeep to get best value. No normal CDJR dealer wants your Jeep and that's why the offers are so low. They have to think about auction prices and yours isn't going to bring a premium in that space. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. As someone else said you need to think of this as two different transactions.

Very small group of buyers that would want that Jeep. It looks like a billboard. Dealerships want stock vehicles. They usually sell better.

They don't up the value?
