Trading it in for 31k is like selling it private party for $33k. Honestly, it isnt too bad of a deal, considering you wont have to wait months to sell it. I mean yeah, you will be losing out max like $2,000.... but that $2,000 is the price you pay of the convenience of being able to get rid of the old car at the stroke of a pen.

You could try maybe milling another grand or so out of it, but realistically, I think your car is probably worth $35,000... and it might take a few mo tha to sell it st that price. 33k will probably sell relatively fast, but not as fast as a trade in
