Was looking at and thought about trading in for a 2003 Chevy Impala LS.

 

Cost was 24115 minus 3000 rebates and my 1000 gm card cash.  Kinda miffed at my trade in offer, 9115 for a cost of $12,000 +ttl.

 

Thought about just keeping my truck and selling it myself or keep it esp since I just got new tires for it last month.

 

 

Opinions?

I'd keep the Truck if I could, but if you can't, you can't.

I agree...If you can't keep it,  sell it yourself.  I just did a kbb.com on my '99, it was $16,885  low miles, excellent condition private party sales.  Trade in value was $12,823.  Sounds like your dealer was trying to take back all your incentives.

I think it all depends on the situation.  I traded a '99 F150SCab 4x4 Lariat with 70k miles for $14k.  But I didn't mind b/c it had had an engine replacement due to a psgr side head gasket failure, needed new tires and I got it for $6500 off MSRP originally.  So to get the  

 

What I'm getting at, is that it's hard to make a determination strictly by numbers.  If you do decide to go private party and have time, do an in-and-out.  Most dealers will charge you a $200 document fee but you get closer to the retail price for your vehicle and the tax deduction of a trade.

Do you have your heart set on an Impala?  Just saying because I'm a chevy truck guy, but when it comes to cars I've always felt pontiac gives you just a little bit more than chevy does.  Personally I'd see what it would cost you for a bonneville ssei w/ a supercharger and heads up display.  Trust me, you will never want a car w/o heads up display once you've had it.

      2007 Silverado classic Cooling fan running

      By Mistycool · Posted

      I am having similar issues.. 08, 4.8L granted I did had a fender bender and minor damage up front passenger side but I don’t think it had anything to do with it.. I had the high and low pressure checked and my fan for my radiator keeps coming on.. replaced the pressure switch and don’t want to keep throwing parts at it. I did have some minor problems here and there like on long road trips sometimes the ac would get a little warm and then on the highway as soon as I give it a little gas or get a little heavier on the petal it started running cooler. Never had an issue with the ac besides the here and there.. but I also started having issues when I fuel up now it takes a bit to start ( super embarrassing) it runs fine and once started ( only happens after fueling up) starts fine any other time. Could they be related?

      Spent a small fortune on fuel this weekend.   $6.69 diesel, 18 gallons of that. $6.99 92-octane ethanol free, 10 gallons of that for yard machines $5.59 87-octane for one of the cars, 11 gallons.   $250+ and I didn't even get a tug.   Hormuz ain't Hormuzin again, did not see that coming...LOL

      Auto start stop disable

      Appreciate the advice. I've watched multiple videos. Most showing the most complex for those that have a center console, to one that showed maybe 2 pieces of trim being removed, like 6 screws, pulling back the screen and switch assembly, and installing the inline module. And this was a new/newer Silverado. That didn't look too bad. All the others show alot of trim pieces that need to be removed. I've broken those kind of tabs/clips on my C8 Corvette trying to get to the battery, and that was a lot less clips than what I think is involved here after watching multiple videos and looking at my dash today. I have one on the way. Called a reputable stereo place about installing it and got a "minimum" price of $175. Ouch! Looking forward to seeing what the instructions have to say.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Atlas · Posted

      Hard to say what the issue might be. Anything from the ability to cool the AC condenser up front, to blend door issues in the HVAC unit, to refrigerant charge, to compressor issues or issues in the lines.   Report back what the techs find on the 29th.   GM has service publications which list acceptable vent temperatures and AC pressures at given ambient temps and humidity. They probably won't touch the system if it's operating within those ranges.   I'm also surprised to hear your 2024 with the L8T is still using R134a? I was pretty sure the HD's had switched to the new refrigerant around 2020.
