What *trade in* value did your `03 bring?

[Crunch]

Just curious, but what kind of trade in value will an `03 bring if you trade up to an `04 600? I have no current plans to trade up, but I've got this strange feeling that I may have been bit by the bug, and if the trade in value is nice...

You and me both. I was looking at anew 600 today,with all the options i like. Thing is i think i would get buried alive on trade in. I owe like $30,000. 00 Maybe Tomeygun can save us.

I got out the door for $32k and change. I put $10K down so I wouldn't be upside down on the truck at any point, and have been paying heavy since my first payment ($600 on a $425/month payment). I'm down to just over $18K left. If I'm dreaming, this is where the dream will end: If I could get $25K for a $35K truck I'd pay off the $18k on the old one, leaving me with $7K to put down on a new 600 ($35K-$25K=$10K), leaving me with a paltry $3000 in new payments. I have a dream...

--------depends on dealer but check with KBB.com or NADA.com for trade in averages. my dealer offers 500 over averages. good luck... ... JIM

Went from 03 laramie SO W/auto SRW (10500 miles) to a 04 laramie HO W/6 speed DRW and my payment only went up $40 per month.



I think it worked out to about 30k that I got for the 03'

Be careful how the dealer works the new deal! I paid 39K for my 03 dually, Laraime, quadcab (loaded). Paid 33K for new truck (see sig). I went to 3 dealers; 1)30K for 03 at 200 over invoice, 2)31K for 03 at 500 over invoice, 3) 33K for 03 at sticker (40k). Chose #2. Should note all 3 had same printout for invoice. All 3 offered 2500 cash back + 500 farm bureau.
