Not that I'd ever trade in my Canyon but I was at a Chevy dealer last week and saw someone trade in a 2019 Colorado ZR2 with 35,000 miles for a new 2021 Blazer.
We got to talking and they had Employee pricing that week which dropped the price on the Blazer from the $50K Sticker to $40K, so he was okay with the lower Trade. I still think he could have gotten at least $5K - $7K more in a private sale. It was an SLT with leather and a short bed but had the roll bar with a nice aftermarket roof rack and light bar. Plus he had Baja Lights in the bumper, and two LED spotlights mounted on the hood at front window pillars. It was a nice black truck and they only gave him $25K trade in. WWYD?
