    Offered through FB marketplace by the local Toyota dealer, we have this orphan:

    2015 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT

    104k long miles, beige cloth seats in "ok" shape, clean carfax, charoal gray, roof rack, alloys -- IOW the usual equipment.

    Looks clean but not exceptional. Michelin tires with decent tread. Asking $11,800, which strikes me as optimistic.. what's it worth in the real world?

    No it's not for me, I already own a '17 low-end model we bought new.... it's for a friend of mine who's '08 Sienna is on the way out.

    Thanks in advance, -mathias

    Q. I asked about a V-90 Cross Country about 2.5 months ago. BTW, That one is still on the dealer's lot. Wife doesn't like the brown color on that one. This is a "regular" V-90 wagon in a blue that she likes. Any idea? Loaded CPO with less than 8K miles:

    It appears they paid $41k at auction for it.
    Yours is probably a $12k-$13k trade.

    @qbrozen I'm not looking to get rid of it, but just curious what my Tacoma is worth.

    They're asking $49K--what kind of savings is that over a brand new one? $10K? Or? BTW I saw a Volvo sedan in that blue color--it looked beautiful. I also like the white ("blond") interior--the interior looks ultra-modern, but simple, & the seats look fantastic.

    For whatever it's worth, I just leased a V90 XC - leftover 2019 model. Not exactly an Inscription V90 model, but it is pretty well loaded with the Luxury Package and B&W audio. $68k MSRP and with lease incentives, they discounted the price by almost $20k to $49k.

    If you're seeking out a "non-XC" V90, they're pretty scarce and this may be the right way to go. If you're open to other V90 models, including the XC, there may be other deals out there.

    Just my $.02.

    @qbrozen,
    I was looking at the fuel mileage listed and the other similar listings had AWD in the banner description.
    Better that is is AWD, considering sb55 is interested in it.

    Up here, 20 miles from Canada, wife will only consider AWD. We live on a shady dirt road and it is often icy. Even last couple of weeks were bad due to the 8" snow 2 weeks ago. Now it's a little warmer and we're in an early "mud season" since the ground never really froze hard. My gravel driveway is like driving on peanut butter. I need to grade it to get the water to perk down otherwise it stays wet.
    ps, we never have clean cars. Either mud or dust.

    Is it shady because you live there? Or are there undesirable Canadians lurking about? ;b

    @sb55 You could scrape some of the mud off into burlap sacks and just drop them along the side of the road for "erosion control." Then, you'll have a shady dirt road surrounded by shady dirt bags.

    Hi, was hoping for thoughts from the community. Considering trading in my 2015 red auto Chevrolet SS, sunroof, with spare, 48,500 mi towards 2018 Genesis G80 sport 3.3T. Dallas area. First off, should I do it to get Android Auto and safety features and a nicer interior? Second, what could I expect for trade in? Condition is good to very good. Not excellent. It’s a stock daily driver.
  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,330
    the expert can give you numbers on each one. have you gotten a first offer yet?

    Genesis is certainly a fancier car, and if your really want the extra features and like it better, and can afford it, go for it.

    also, how many miles on the Genesis?

    Me. I'd keep the SS- it's the American equivalent of the E39 M5. Thre are only a few sedans I'd rather have- and the G80 isn't one of them. As for"safety features," The only ones I like are ABS and parking sensors.

    I would prefer RWD but there aren’t many used G80 sports on the market here. And I can’t bear the thought of 55k new for a 2020.
  • qbrozenqbrozen Member Posts: 33,736
    Should see at least $27k on your SS, assuming no paintwork or service needs. See what Vroom will offer since they are in TX. And take that offer to the dealer with the Hyundai.

    If I am not mistaken, they picked up that genny in Nevada for an even $40k. Sooo... you can TRY for $14k and your car. Don’t go past $16k, IMHO.

    Funny, I didn't even look at the asking price before. $42k is a bargain. Wonder if they are the type of place to hit you with a massive fee. Anyway, $14k and your car is certainly reasonable based on their asking price.

    Yeah, they don't make a turbo Forester anymore, and that one looks nice. Would probably do well on a private sale.
