This will come on very handy when I can finally afford a new vehicle. I just paid my gas gulper off and it's trade in value is under 1k. So it's gonna be a minute.

Scrap might give you more....but really selling it should get more than 1k

Why did you finance a car worth so little. How is your car worth less than $1000?

It's a 2014 I bought used from a dealer, and I've put A LOT of miles on it. I just double checked the trade in value on Edmunds is 1700. The dealership I was as looking to get a better car from estimated it at just under 1k a few months ago, so that's where I had the original number from. Maybe I will just sell it myself and use that towards a down payment, cause I need an upgrade. It's both a work mobile and family commuter.

Ah gotcha, I would suggest selling it yourself

What's it Blue Book for? People buy cars for more than a dealer will pay you trade in.
