Default Opinions on trading back to a 2014

Looking for opinions and things negatives I haven't thought of for a deal I am working on for trading my 2015 Lariat FX4 Sport (which has the apparent unfixable problems of rattling moonroof, cooled seats that don't work, and general rattles and wind noise all around) as well as that I am 6'6" and am much less comfortable in this truck than the 14's, and I was convinced the 23 gallon tank was ok, but greatly miss the 36 gallon from my 14.

So here is the deal,
My trade (6k miles): 43k
2014 F150 Fx4 Luxury & appearance pkg (18k miles):38k.

SO basically I get 5k back. 14 has basically everything my current truck has plus the tailgate step.

Any opinions or downfalls I am not thinking of would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

It depends what was the initial cost to get into the 2015?

The way I read is he owes 43 now if he put 10k down to buy the 2015 then I do t think it's a good deal.

If I could get a decent deal on a trade I would do it. Would love to step back from my 2015 to a 2014.

I am happy to say you couldn't pay me to take my 13 back. I like everything so much better on the 15, I will admit the cooled seats worked much better on the 13 though.

Agreed, if you aren't going to suffer too bad in negative equity, I'd say do it
