I forgot about the other time we traded in a vehicle. My dad had 2008 Diesel F250 that was in absolutely immaculate shape, with one issue…it was only 2WD. After he passed away, my mom was hoping to get a new SUV, so I tried to sell the truck privately for months before giving up and taking $9500 for it on a trade in deal at the dealer. I’m sure they just flipped it and sold it in the US for a massive mark up, but I just didn’t have enough time to try and go down that path on my own. We also had a 2008 Ford Fusion and the dealer offered $6K for a trade in and I ended up selling it privately for $11K.
