Anyone check to see what their new truck was worth...just out of curiosity?

Did a Vroom quote just now and it came back $42,869. I am the second owner and I have 36,250 miles on it and paid $42,204 after TT&L back in January of this year. The MSRP was $50,845. NADA shows average trade in value is $43,250.
I submitted my truck to all three again yesterday. All are up $1000 from last week.
I think I'm going to just submit a new request every Monday and the first time it goes down I'll sell to the highest bidder. Right now it seems that CM is the front runner.
That worked for me, my offers kept going up for a few months on my truck when I sold it last Spring, and the same with my partners car we sold this fall as I checked every couple weeks for a month or two.
Hope your experience is as good as ours, they looked the car over fairly well that we sold them (a lot better than autonation checked out my truck when I sold to them) and came right back at the online offer. Car even needed a tire pressure sensor replaced (obviously a very minor thing but I didn't tell them about it for the quote) and they didn't say anything about it at all. Autonation was pretty good, they dinged me for tires but otherwise were more than fair for what they gave me for it, and that truck did need some work.
Let us know how it goes.

Definitely appears to be a USA only thing. Here in Canada used prices are just a bit above normal as far as I can see. I'd lose at least $10,000 to $15,000 on my truck, and then have no discounts on a new truck to replace it.
Good thing I love my truck!

It's definitely a little crazy down here. I had to do more leg work this time (as oppose to my usual 3-5 hour one way trip to trade in at the dealer I'm buying from), selling on my own to autonation and ordering from Mark Dodge 1500 miles away. However, I was very happy with the deal I got on my order and I was blown away with what I got for my 2017 that was beat up and I had put some hard miles on.
Glad you have a good truck to hold onto up there!

For sure crazy, i also traded a 17 base model back first week of march, at the time i felt i got a super great deal. Only to keep seeing priced go up and up on use ones.
probably would have gotten another 4-5k had i waited a few weeks.
But then also saw some dealers started to put some crazy marks ups

Just sold my Jeep Gladiator to https://www.givemethevin.com/ They gave me $53k for my2 year old and 32,000 mile Jeep. I paid $50,700 w/o tax and about $4k in mods, so a big win in my eyes. Super easy process and great people to work with.
One dealer offer $42k on trade and another $45k, so even with the tax break it was a $5k+ gain.

I did a similar thing when selling my Ford & Hyundai. I submitted every week for a few months until the price was something I felt comfortable with. The Ford Escape with 270K miles they started at $400 and I accepted $1750...they say it's now worth $2500 but I already accepted that May offer so oh well.
