Are you looking to purchase a new set of wheels and not sure what to do with your current vehicle? Trading it into Miracle Toyota is a great idea! This can help you pay the down payment of your new car, making it even easier to slide into the driver’s seat of your dream ride.
Best of all, our team makes this process easy with our vehicle trade-in checklist. Before you hit the roads near Haines City, Lakeland, and Loughman, Florida, refer to this guide for a streamlined process that gets you the trade-in value you deserve.
✓ Find Your Next Vehicle: If you plan on trading in your model for a new ride, you’ll need to find a perfect match. With our expansive inventory of new Toyota models as well as research resources, like vehicle reviews and guides, you can easily set your sights on what you’ll want to drive next.
✓ Determine Your Vehicle’s Worth: Next, you’ll want to find out how much your trade-in vehicle is worth. Using our Trade-In Valet tool, you’ll determine its estimated value within a few minutes! All you need to do is provide information about your vehicle and it does the work for you.
✓ Remove Personal Items: Do an extensive sweep of your vehicle and remove any personal items. Make sure to check the door pockets, glove compartments, center console, and trunk or cargo area. This is also a good time to reinstall any factory items you may have removed (extra row of seats, entertainment system headphones, etc.).
✓ Wash & Detail: To ensure you get the most for your trade-in model, you’ll need to prepare the vehicle for an in-person inspection. Put its best face forward by thoroughly cleaning and detailing both the interior and exterior. Either do it yourself or hire a professional because first impressions are everything!
✓ Maintenance & Repairs: If your vehicle is due for a maintenance visit or needs some minor repairs, getting them done beforehand might result in a higher trade-in value. This can include anything from an oil change to fixing minor dents on the exterior.
✓ Make an Appointment: All trade-in models must go through an inspection by one of our professionals at the dealership. When you’re ready, make an appointment online or by giving us a call for a streamlined process. They’ll then give your vehicle a look over to see if everything matches with your online report.
✓ What to Bring: There are several items you should bring to your appointment to make trading in a vehicle easy and seamless. This includes:
