Is it worth the bother to remove tow plates?
We are trading in our 2010 Jeep Wrangler Sport on a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trail Hawk in a week. The tow plates will not work on the new Trail Hawk. Is it worth it to have some one remove the base plate ...

This is a 2 way street for the dealer. Some specialize in offering vehicles set up, ready to tow and charge extra for them. I know several like that. Some will deduct from the trade allowance for them, as they say they have to remove them to sell the vehicle. In my case, I have always removed them and sold them on either Hitch Trader, as I did with my last setup off the 2005 GMC, or ebay. I never had any luck with craigslist for them. The ones off the 2005 GMC sold last year for $200, shipping included, so I made a decent profit. The UPS store charged me $38 to pack & ship.
