Frequently Asked Questions About Trade-Ins

Do I pay sales tax on the full price of my new car?

No! In most cases, you only pay sales tax on the price after the trade-in value is deducted.

Can I trade in a car that I still owe money on?

Yes, we’ll factor the remaining loan balance into your trade-in deal.

When is the best time to trade in my car?

Trading in your car before it depreciates significantly—usually around the 3-5 year mark—is ideal.
