Carvana is offering 25K for my 2020 XLT with all the options and 30K miles. Not great considering the dealer near me has a 2020 XLT with fewer options, but FX2 and 25K miles, for 33K. Which is what I paid for mine new 3 years ago.
I have a 2020 Lariat with 10,500 miles loaded all options, dealer I bought it from offered me 31,000 two weeks ago. I hardly ever drive it so I thought might as well sell it but not at that price.
agree here. i saw this on Car Dealership Guy's twitter (I love reading the data he posts):
how bad does Carvana nitpick you when they pick up your vehicle? they usually beat every dealer by ~$2,500, but I'm worried they'll show up and nitpick my truck back down in price.
Good practice Jason. In my case I have x plan so I know what my 6g will cost. The devil will be 100% in the trade vs sell myself. They are hedging on giving me a trade price til my new truck comes in and that is smart on their part as my value keeps going down.
Super nice truck Jeff, and I like that you got Vanna White to showcase it!I just purchased a '21 XLT extended cab with 15,xxx miles, 301A package for $33k. It had been listed for sale since Aug '23.
No complaints from me on the focus I sold and that had a few exterior scratches, one which I disclosed as it was very noticeable. They came to my house, took pics of the outside of the car, then a few interior pics and handed me the check. There’s a spot on the site to disclose any damage, that’s where I put a pic of the one scratch. It was still 3k more than any dealer and I didn’t have to deal with sales people.agree here. i saw this on Car Dealership Guy's twitter (I love reading the data he posts):

Always gotta be leery of anyone trying to predict the future in any way, but i've shopped my ranger around a bunch since summer looking for a full size. every time the trade offers from different dealerships are dropping. 2019 XLT with sport and fx4 package, side rails, spray in bed liner, and tonneau cover -- in May I got a $28.5k offer (I was at 55k miles), and go all the way to last month i got a $24k offer at 60k miles (an 18.75% drop over 5 months and 5k miles!).
Even the monthly alerts I get for my wife's 4Runner I see it's value dropping too.
If new and used vehicle prices are starting to dip down, trade prices will too. It sure seems to be a bubble, as Msfitoy points out.

You were at the dealer. Nuff Said.
That does seem pretty low. I listed mine for sale back in July and a few dealership buyers offered me $26k. It's a '19 XLT FX4 with 75k miles at the time.
just be honest in the comments and you should be fine. The 3 big ones I would check is vroom, carvana and CarMax.agree here. i saw this on Car Dealership Guy's twitter (I love reading the data he posts):
