Ferret,
Thanks for sharing the financial details of your trade(s). Not many people are willing to do that. Most of us want to be the people who go to Vegas and always make money, not the poor sap that loses it (that would be me if I were a gambler!) I don't know how Vegas stays alive with everyone making money and only a few losing (sarcasm). Same with a dealership. If the forumula was such that everyone made money buying/selling with a dealer, the dealers would all be broke!
FYI, I was trying to work a deal on the new Royal Enfield Continental GT. Dealer was willing to give me $6,000 for the CB1100 and MSRP on the Enfield. KBB trade in on the CB is $5,750. I didn't do the deal, but just wanted to let people know what I was offered on a trade in.
