Replying to: camatt1 (Jan 21, 2009 5:56 am) People are willing to buy SUV's but the price has to be right. Especially on domestic SUV's. Your truck should bring  $16,000 on a trade.

Replying to: woodyww (Jan 20, 2009 12:34 pm) Few dealers and few retail buyers make for a weak market for the car. One reason Honda's and Toyota's do well is because you have widespread interest in the product. Both at the dealer and customer level. |

Replying to: deltheking (Jan 20, 2009 6:48 pm) A dealer will probably be in the $15-16,000 range on this car. Why the suddden urge for a Hybrid? |

Replying to: qbrozen (Jan 21, 2009 9:36 am) but I've heard that auction commitment levels on these type SUV's have taken a "nose dive," so I've kinda been expecting the worse- case-scenario,.....possibly no more than $14-$15K,....but I have no basis/facts for that. I'm noticing lots of Explorers for sale, both '06/'07 and many are priced in the $15-$20K range with less than 30,000 miles, however many are 6 cylindar and I was hoping the 8 cylindar might bring in a little more. On used SUV's dealers try to make as much as $3-$5K per sale so that leaves a lot of room for their real buy-price to be much lower at auction, thus trade-in will be impacted too. My feeling is the Trade-In offer from a Dealer will be at/near what the Auction Prices are at present and I know Dealership Lots are loaded with "repos," therefore auction prices are likely cratering,....but I'm just guessing. All I'm looking for is some current advice based on something that happened recently with someone else trading in a low mileage '07 V8 Ford Explorer "Eddie Bauer (4WD). |
