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.

"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 never know....
I got real lucky in March and got $37,000. for a 2006 Cayenne traded on an Infiniti G35x, which I paid invoice for. I was expecting $33,000. or $34,000 in trade, and instead of paying, I actually got $ back. The Infiniti dealer is also a Porsche dealer, so I know that I got a good deal.
Hey, I guess that the dealer was a "friggin idiot"!!!

You got $37k instead of $34k. That's "only" $3k difference, less than 10%. The original poster wants $30k instead of $20k, that's 50% more.
 
The market for SUVs has ground to a halt recently. You can't compare a transaction from March to one now. Finally, I wouldn't compare a Cayenne's market to a Pathfinder one. You are comparing apples to oranges.

hmmmm... was the $2k dealer incentive in effect at that time?
