Frequently Asked Questions About Trade-Ins
Do I pay sales tax on the full price of my new car?
No! In most cases, you only pay sales tax on the price after the trade-in value is deducted.
Can I trade in a car that I still owe money on?
Yes, if you still owe money on your car, we’ll consider that balance when making the offer.
When is the best time to trade in my car?
Trading in your car before it loses too much value, typically around 3-5 years, is best.
