Buy the new car and end up with 2 cars ?

Have 2 car payments potentially ?

You don’t get a fair shake, so you don’t want to let it go.

A Lot.

So the car salesman is trying to both meet his monthly Sales Quota as well as make the most money on the deal.

He typically has 2 ways to achieve higher profits.

Second he makes money on the trade in.

Trade in’s are going to be either sold on their lot or immediately sold to a third party at a known price.

Tactics to Trade in Your Car

If you have a trade in you will get a single price drop for both the new car and trade in together.
