Frequently Asked Questions About Trade-Ins
Do I pay sales tax on the full price of my new car?
No! You’ll pay sales tax only on the reduced price after your trade-in value is applied.
Can I trade in a car that I still owe money on?
Yes, we’ll factor the remaining loan balance into your trade-in deal.
When is the best time to trade in my car?
Trading in your car before it depreciates significantly—usually around the 3-5 year mark—is ideal.
