Below is an example of how the trade-in value works with the taxes

Lets just say you have a trade that you believe is worth around $9,000.00. The dealer however, offers you only $7,200 for your trade. Should you trade-in your car or sell privately.  You are purchasing a car with a value of $20,490.00

Using the comparison above, you would have to sell your trade privately for a minimum of $8,208, plus advertising costs and your time.   If you were able to sell your car privately for $9,000.00 you could be ahead by $792.00.   However, make sure you know what people would be willing to pay for your vehicle and remember they like to negotiate on the price.
