Based on what has gone over the block, you are probably looking at a trade in in the low 20's.

No, its not a typo.
The MOST that any 08 Pathfinder LE 4WD's have brought nationally has been $26,000 at the factory sale.
So, figure low $20's on a trade in.
Others w/ miles in the teens went for under $20k.

Here in Chicago one optioned as mine would be going for close to $40K new, so hopefully i can get a trade at least close to $30K and and make up the difference with the rebates and similar low going price on the Armada. I'm meeting with the GM of my dealership later today to see if we can work something out so I guess I'll find out soon enough. Thanks for the input guys!
 
I felt like a got a good deal on the truck back in November paying invoice, but now I feel like I'm screwed.

Good Luck.
Only a friggin idiot would give you $30k cash money for that truck.
I hate to put it that way, but there it is.

You know what? Back in Nov you may very well have gotten a good deal.
However, 2 things now conspire against you.
1 the usual bath you take trading a new car in so soon after purchase
2 the fact that SUV values are plummeting.
I don't think we have seen this kind of drop in values since the last gas crunch in the 70's.

Welcome to the current truck/suv market. I did the same thing with my Tundra...bought out my lease for a "good" deal (less than real-world trade value quoted here). Lost about $4,000 since then....and this was starting with a 3 year old vehicle. I can only imagine if you were starting with a new one....
 
The good news is they should be just as anxious to move a new Armada....although personally I'd look at used ones!

I think I've got $5.00 around here somewhere
 
Car's probably worth $1500-2,000 on a trade.
