A new car store is going to be alittle soft on your truck, since they probably have 50 BRAND NEW ones that they can sell for less with all the rebates and dealer incentives. Don't expect to get a top dollar trade from them, they are there to make money and if they can do that PLUS make you happy.............they are happy, but the making money part comes first.
I've gotten to the point where I'm responding to dealer email by basically laying it all on the table and see what they say.
1. looking for a black on black GT500, recaros, electronics package, glass roof, performance package
2. I usually qualify for z-plan, but it is not offered on the 13 gt500 so I would prefer a deal in between x-plan and MSRP (I would actually do MSRP but not a penny over)
3. And I need 40k for the f150 on trade in.
If all that can be done I'll drive down and buy it right now.
I've only done this to 3 or 4 dealers so far, only one has responded and basically said no. They seem more concerned with the price of the GT500 than the trade in value.
O well, I'm in no rush and I have a feeling a deal will eventually be made.

Market value and actual value are most certainly not the same. If you look up your truck, say on KBB you will find the "actual value" of what it should be worth whether trading it in or selling to a private buyer. Market value will fluctuate depending on other circumstances. Say gas prices shoot through the roof...things like this will affect the "market value" of your trade in.

this "blackbook" thing its pretty much like KBB. I dont see what your talking about auction prices but the values it gives you are significantly less. This is what most of the dealers around here are using because it gives you less of a trade in value.
