I’ll try to make this as brief as possible, just looking for some advice.
Bought my Gladiator during the early Covid crisis and got a What I believe to be a good deal. It’s a moderately equipped sport S (hard too, 7” radio, painted fenders and overland front bumper)msrp was $43500 and bought it for $37 flat plus TTandL.
Reading around seems that they are still offering close to sticker for a trade in, assuming that’s the case I’ll have close to 10k equity on it, and also seems that in Texas if you trade in for the same year at the same dealership your taxes are applied to the purchase (only pay the difference of the new car not the whole thing over again)
with all that said, there’s a nicely equipped Rubicon with a considerable discount (msrp $57flat sale price $51 flat) if I go poke around I might maybe get it for $50 flat.
so the question is trade in or not? love my gladiator but a rubicon will hold value better ??
has anyone done this trade up recently?
thanks!
