I have a trade-in. How does this work?

You can trade your car in at the dealer, who will likely spend money to fix it up before reselling. To get the best offer, take time to prepare your trade:

• Fix any problems.

• Bring your title if you have it.

• Clean your car inside and out.

• Keep only four things in the glove box: registration, insurance, maintenance receipts, and the owner’s manual/warranty.

A clean, organized trade shows the dealer you’re ready to buy today, which helps you get the best offer. Remember, the dealer wants to make a deal too.
