Cool

if you are trying to get private party value from a dealer trade in, no wonder you have unrealistic expectations.


good for you if you can get a high price, but don't be upset when you get a better than average one.

Modifying a JEEP doesn't increase resale or trade-in value...it decreases. Best bet would be to sell to a JEEP enthusiast and buy cash.
X2 I sold jeeps for 3 years. I used to tell people the moment they said anything about trading. I was an honest sales person. Of course, thats why I never made more then 40K a year.

That's why you're getting these ridiculous quotes.

They offered you $26,500 for the Jeep outright or as a trade in price?

I think you are missing the point.

Go to the Jeep Dealership and tell them you want to sell the Jeep outright and not buy another Jeep then see how much they will give you for your Jeep.:
