Sell or Trade Your Vehicle near Dothan, AL

Sell or Trade Your Vehicle near Dothan, AL 

By now, you’ve probably heard that you can sell or trade your vehicle right here at Gilland Ford, but which one is best for you? In this guide, we’d like to break down the two options so that you’re able to make an informed decision before starting the process. Read on to learn more, and remember to contact us with any questions. 

Selling

To begin, selling is a path best suited to those that do not need to replace their vehicle. Whether it’s to downsize or you simply need cash fast, we’ll be happy to make the process quick and easy. Before you make your way to our location, be sure to spruce up your ride by cleaning the exterior, and removing any debris or personal belongings from the interior. Just as well, it’s important to make sure that your ride is up to date with its maintenance schedule. By doing so, you can avoid any deductions from the initial estimate you were provided. After we’ve had a chance to review your set of wheels in person, we’ll make a final offer. Should you accept, our team can help you sign over ownership, and you will be handed a check for the agreed-upon amount in exchange for the keys.

Trading

While the preliminary steps remain largely the same, trading differs in that you’ll leave at the helm of a new-to-you vehicle, rather than with a check in hand. To make this happen, the total amount that your vehicle is determined to be worth will be utilized as an addition to your down payment towards a new or pre-owned vehicle. To save some time, feel free to browse these inventories right here on our site. That way, you’ll have an idea of what you might want to test drive when you visit. This process is ideal for those that are ready to upgrade, and thanks to what you can save by trading, you might even be able to spring for a higher trim level, later model year, or additional features.   

Online Resources

Along with our digital inventory, we have other tools available on our website to help keep things convenient. By using our Value Your Trade tool, an initial estimate will provide an idea of what you can expect when you arrive at our location. For those pursuing a trade, our Finance dropdown menu provides tools like a Payment Calculator to get an idea of a potential monthly payment or your buying power. You’re also able to apply for financing and pre-approval beforehand by clicking the corresponding link, which will expedite the process of securing an ideal loan package before handing you the keys.
