How to Boost Your Trade-in Value

To maximize your vehicle’s trade-in value, there are a few things you should do. First, make sure your car is up to date with its maintenance. If there are any issues, you should consider fixing them before selling or trading in your vehicle, as this can impact its value. If your vehicle is in need of any service or maintenance before you trade it in, schedule an appointment with our team to maximize your vehicles' value.

You should also be strategic as to when you sell or trade your car. For example, if you own an all-wheel drive SUV, you may want to trade it in during the winter when these vehicles are in higher demand. Because more people are looking to purchase your type of car, it may be worth more.

Our Online Trade-in Tools

To help you prepare for the trade-in process, we offer a variety of online tools that can help you. For example, our trade-in calculator can help you determine your current car’s value in just 30 seconds. Simply tell us some basic information about your vehicle, like its model, year, and condition, and we’ll give you an estimate.

If you plan to purchase your next Ford after trading in your current one, you may also want to complete our online finance application. This way, we can review your information and you could be pre-approved for a loan before you arrive.

There is no cooling off period unless you obtain a contract cancellation option. California law does not provide for a “cooling off” or other cancellation period for vehicle lease or purchase contracts. Therefore you cannot later cancel such a contract simply because you change your mind, decide the vehicle costs too much, or you wish you had acquired a different vehicle. After you sign a motor vehicle purchase or lease contract it may only be cancelled with the agreement of the seller or lessor or for legal cause such as fraud. However, California law does require a seller to offer a 2-day contract cancellation option on used vehicles with a purchase price of less than $40,000 subject to certain statutory conditions. This contract cancellation option requirement doesn’t apply to the sale of a recreational vehicle, a motorcycle, or an off-highway motor vehicle subject to identification under California Law. See the vehicle contract cancellation option agreement for details.
