I have a 2017 TRD pro in super white. 8100 miles and only upgrade is c4 sliders. Dealer offered me $39,500 for trade-in. Kbb his higher but also seems unrealistic. What do you guys think?

I haven't seen one for less than $40,000 for sale. Cheapest one was a 2016 quicksand with 52,000 for $40,500. I bet if you put it up for sale for $42,000 it would sell quick.

If your up here in California you can sell for 42 easy. But I'd trade it as a new one is only 42 msrp
 
I think a fair trade-in for it would be 42k. Only 4 have sold at auction and the cheapest one did 44,200. That said be careful about negotiating the trade-in the dealer can give you more but they will likely try to make it up somewhere else.
 
I'm sure I'll get roasted on here for this, but, I'm working numbers with a dealer for a 2017 raptor in White. To honest about the 4runner I'm just kind of underwhelmed by it. Had a Tacoma before this and miss having a truck. But being 6'2" it felt cramped and the tundra is so outdated and outclassed right now I'm not interested in that.

Those trucks are badass as well. Try to sell the TRD Pro on your own though, you'll get more $
 
I just traded in my 2015 Black TRD PRO with 42k miles needing 4 tires on a Brand new 2017 Cement. They gave me $37,000 for it and $500 off MSRP on the new one. I was a little surprised on how strong the trade in value was.

But with trade in I'll be get an almost $4k tax savings. I'd realistically have to sell it for $43k to match that. That $39.5k is what they'd give me for my 4runner even if I just sold it to them. They haven't told me what the lowest they'll go on the raptor yet. So they aren't trying funny business with the numbers on the trade in.
 
Try Auto trader, ask $42k, give it a week, you'll sell it. Take cash to the Ford store.

Mention this to the Ford stealership, they may match it, but as btgood1 said, they will try to make it back on the other end.

A trade-in creates basically 2 transactions. They aren't going to do it for free…

Good Luck.
 
I don't know how it works in Washington, but in PA, when you trade a vevicle, it reduces the tax owed on the new vehicle. That would reduce the 6% tax by $2400.
 
Dealer logic:
I can afford to give you wholesale on your vehicle, if I sell mine to you at wholesale.
If I give you full trade-in value on your vehicle, I can knock $500 off [retail] sticker and still feel good about it.
If I give you retail value on your vehicle, you bet your dollar you will pay at least retail on mine!
FORD Store: The Raptor's sell for an amazing mark-up. I can most certainly step up on your trade and make it look like I am being generous. Either way, you will get the shaft on one end... or sometimes both...
 
Get an appraisal from CarMax.
Shop other dealers - it's a very sought after SUV.

I think you can get more for it based on the prices I've seen at CarMax (over MSRP for a used one!)

How much are you paying for the Raptor before TTL?
