I havent done any trade in shit, hate dealing with the assholes and always sold my stuff privately. Now for the wierd part…would a dealership take a new quad in on trade? I mean they have KBB for the atv’s and what not, and mine is worth like $4700 used. Just wondering of anyone has tried this… ---

the ywill def. try to rip u off, my old boss used to take boats in on trade and only give them wholesale and then he’d take it to the auction and make a couple g’s off it , so I would not advise trading it in, ur better off selling it someone you know. ---

Definitely try to sell it private party and use that cash as a down payment on a new vehicle. Not that it can’t be done but as most posters said they’ll give you next to nothing for it. ---

but even if you can trade it in, they will only give you a grand or two, might as well just sell it for 3500 or put it on ebay if you want to get rid of it ---
