Value My Car

Selling your used vehicle to a dealership is a great way to receive monetary compensation or to possibly trade in for a new method of transportation. You might find yourself wondering, "how do I value my car? How can I get the most from my vehicle? What’s the easiest way to sell my car? Or the fastest way to sell my used car?" Not to worry! At McCluskey Chevrolet, we’re experts in the fine art of determining car value. There are many aspects of determining the value that requires a considerable amount of research, and others that are determined by the current state of your vehicle in terms of mileage and wear and tear.

When you’re considering selling or trading your vehicle, there are a few important factors to remember. One of these is the process of depreciation. When a new car is sold and driven from the lot to the driveway, the car begins to decrease in value. This is what depreciation is, and it’s not exclusive to just one type of make and model; all vehicles go through this process. Some depreciate in value at a quicker rate than others, and determining this rate requires quite a bit of research. Again, not to worry. At McCluskey Chevy, we do the legwork and research for you! Our offerings are based on current market value, so you’ll receive the payment you’re entitled to.

Determining Your Vehicle's Value

When beginning the process of determining the value of your vehicle, there are a number of determining factors that we look at. Certain makes and models net a higher resale value depending upon their geographic location. For example, a vehicle with an AWD drivetrain will sell more easily in a state with increased snowfall or difficult terrains. Whether selling a vehicle to a dealership such as McCluskey Chevy or selling it yourself, it's usually a good idea to have it looked over by a mechanic and properly detailed. If you have any lingering repairs that need to be attended to or the interior looks unkempt, these can affect resale value.

One of the advantages of bringing your car to McCluskey Chevrolet is that there's complete transparency with the transaction. A private seller might attempt to lowball you and pull the wool over your eyes regarding how much your vehicle is worth. You won't experience that with us. We'll go over the transaction process and give you a fair and balanced offer. Whether you're selling to receive a cash offer or using your vehicle as equity toward purchasing a new one, you'll receive the maximum amount based on market value and its condition.
