Honestly, best time to sell was probably 5 months ago, however since you are buying as well, it probably doesn't matter since prices were higher across the board.

If you can wait to buy, sell as soon as you can and wait several months when the market to bottom out. But if can't wait, then honestly anytime is good, resale and new purchase will probably have similar mark-ups and discounts so it's a wash either way.

Sell it when you feel comfortable selling it. This day and age who knows what will happen tomorrow. If you're comfortable with the trade deal then go for it

Unless you're getting a hybrid or have to go places where parking is an issue, I say keep the truck. I am driving a '23 highlander getting 19mpg lol.

I'm planning to do the same, if the government will still allow us to buy gasoline in 20 years.
Yea good point. I might have to find a back woods hydrogen converter kit.

Best time for me to sell is when I want something else.

You might think it is some big powerbroker investment play that runs you points on Wall Street. It's not. It's just another production vehicle like a million others on the pavement.

Just do what makes you happy with what you drive.
