Buying a car when you have a trade in

BarTopDancer · 03-21-2005, 09:13 AM

I'm looking into trading in my Explorer for a car. I realized I have my entire life to drive an SUV and I want something small (the price of gas is adding to these thoughts but I've been having them for awhile).

So while I am a master at buying a car with no trade-in I'm quite unsure how to not get totally hosed when I have one. Selling it private party isn't an option, I can't afford two car payments or insurance on both until it is sold.

Any tips and advice are welcome.

Thanks!
