You also don’t need to do any sort of due maintenance, repairs, or cleaning to sell it to a dealer.

Depends what you like doing with your time I guess. Totally worth it for me.
Oh I definitely hear you about the value of time and I would never sell most things privately. But $10k for 3 or 4 hours of work is a rather favorable calculation.

Plus there is also an ego/ self respect angle. Knowing I’m getting bent over at the car dealership to avoid a little bit of work is just hard for me to accept. It would be different if I was donating it or something.
