Trade-in evaluations

Trade your current car toward your next one.

Bring it by, or text us a few photos and the basics. We'll evaluate it and roll the value into your down payment.

How it works

Three steps. No appraisal fee. No commitment.

1

Send the basics

Text the team year, make, model, miles, and a couple of photos. We'll give you a ballpark range over text.

2

Drive it in

Bring it by for a quick in-person look. Takes 10 minutes. We'll confirm the actual offer once we see it.

3

Apply the value

If we're interested and you accept, the trade value goes toward your next car's down payment, sometimes covering it entirely.

What we want to know

Send these and we'll get you a number.

Year, make, model, trim
Mileage (close estimate is fine)
Color and major condition issues
2 to 4 photos: front, back, dash, interior
Do you still owe on it? Roughly how much?
Title status (clean, salvage, lien)
Quickest path: text us at 717-282-9188. Sending photos over text is faster than email and we can text you back a ballpark quickly.
Trade-in questions

Honest answers.

Do you take trade-ins?
Yes. Bring your current vehicle by when you come in for your appointment and we'll take a look. If we're interested, we apply the trade value toward your next car, usually toward the down payment.
What's my car worth as a trade?
Depends on year, make, model, mileage, condition, and what we have ready space for on the lot. A photo and the basics over text will usually get you a ballpark quickly. Final value is set when we see it in person.
Do I need to pay off my current car loan first?
Not necessarily. If you owe more than the trade is worth (negative equity), we can sometimes work with that; it depends on the numbers. Text the team with what you owe and we'll talk through it.
Can I trade a vehicle that doesn't run?
Sometimes. A non-running vehicle has very limited trade value but it's not always zero. Tell us the situation and we'll let you know what's realistic.
How does the trade affect my down payment?
A down payment of at least $1,000 is required. If your trade is worth more than the down payment on your car, the trade value usually covers it with money left over (which gets applied to your loan). If it's worth less, you'd cover the difference.
