This^^^^^


They are giving a reasonable offer to make a reasonable profit. Yes, you take a hit on value due to depreciation but that is the car ownership game.




Not directed to OP just a general comment on trading/selling:


Never can understand the car owner that wants to buy for rock bottom but then get top dollar when selling and then blame the dealer for "ripping them off" when that does not happen. Dealers are there earning a living not catering to our personal wishes and desires. As long as they are fair (as per above) then all is good and everybody wins.
