I find it interesting some folks really are concerned about their "trade in" value... I've never worried about that as I do my research before I go to the lot. I feel my coach is worth X amount, their coach is worth Y amount and the only number I'm concerned about is the difference between the two....
@mrubaum....You feel you coach is worth $155,000 (X) and the dealer's coach is worth $400,000 (Y) then the difference is $245,000. Knowing that figure, it doesn't matter what they offer you for your coach, you simply offer them $245,000 plus your coach....they can write up the contract however they want, but the number's the same....
While I'm one of those guys who prefers to trade my stuff in, I know what I can afford and stay within those parameters. It took the dealer three months to call me back and meet my terms on the Executive, but I bought it and I'm sure we both were happy.....Dennis
