When trading in a vehicle it really pays to do your homework. The most important question IMO is asking yourself what can I buy this for outright. That will tell you what the dealer is actually giving you for your trade. Remember a trade can be mutually good for both of you but usually you are just paying for the dealer to get rid of somethng you don't want while getting something you do want. if you are taking a vehicle he wants to also get rid of, that usually will make the best overall deal for you. Every one will be totally different.
Do Your Homework then just live with your decision.

Ya gota build cars that people want - how simple is that to misunderstand? A lot if you look at the entire American car market and how 'those guys' package the cars. Then you've got to build with quality parts and a quality mind set on the line. And the things that po##s us off the most are butthead dealers that are sharks and screw everyone that walks in the door or run a crappy service department with morons as service advisors.
I'm trading my '05 Focus in tomorrow at my Ford delaership. He's offered me a trade of $6200 - no tricks for any car on the lot - new or used. The local Honda guy offered me $3700; the other Ford dealer offered $4500, and the Lexus dealer offered $5500. Is it too hard to figure where I'll do the deal?
So many dealers are buttheads - and the jerks, well most of them, that run the car companies have never sold cars. Now that's being in touch with the American consumer - who is not nearly as **** stupid (read not period) as 'those guys' think.
