Dealership Trade-In Value

[19794Runner]

I guess I can ask this question here. I have a 2016 Trail edition with 59k miles. 6" Fabtech lift, 35's, 4:88 Yukon gears, Rig'd rear tire carrier, Backwoods front bumper. It has never seen dirt. All highway miles and has been garage kept until the lift was installed (no longer fits in garage).

I'm going to trade it in on a 2024 Camry XSE V6. Will the dealership even LET me trade it in after all of these upgrades, especially the suspension lift? What do you guys think the trade-in value would be? I was looking at KBB and they suggested $23-$26k trade-in. Would this be what I can expect, IF they let me trade it in?

Total mods price: $25k

They may or may not want your trade - no harm in asking them. As for value- likely the mods will hurt you on a trade.
You would be much better off selling it privately. Don't expect to get your mods money back.
Any chance you can return it closer to stock - and sell the take off parts? This maybe the most cost effective (discounting time and effort to revert it to stock).

I can remove the Rig'd ultraswing, but that's about it. I would sell it privately, but nobody wants it with the Fabtech lift. I'll just cut my losses and say lesson learned. Thank you for the reply!

Sell private. You will get hosed with a trade-in. Mods are worthless and actually a detriment for a trade in.

I think that's my best bet as well. I'm going to hold off on trading it in. Thanks for the reply!

Most of the used car pricing sites (KBB, Edmonds, NADA) will give you a range of value for retail price (buy at a dealer), trade in value at a dealer, or private party value. Some allow you to list your accessories so the price is adjusted accordingly.

pending state a trade in brings the sale price down so less taxes paid.
