Default Re: So, how much can I expect?

They reflect the market value on what a DEALER will give you for it trade in--they cant give you 36 for it as they would make no money on it re-sale. They can sell it for around 32-36 becuase they can offer financing etc. right there to an potential customer, where as you cant, hence the reasont eh value is lower for private party. 41K sticker--I doubt you paid sticker--honestly, the truck GMS price is around 36K new, so dont expect to get even close to this. The minute you drive it off the lot, expect a depreciation anywhere from 13 to 26%, regardless--its just a fact of life in buying a new vehicle.

Best thing is to either list it yourself somewhere and hope for the best, keep it, or eat the loss and move on.

You can get a Brand new H# stickering at 41K for 35-36 K after the rebate, so why would anyone want a used one for that much??
