    Hello
    I'm looking for knowledge about trading my Tacoma for a full-size. Do you think I can get a better trade-in price at a Toyota dealership versus a Chevy or ford dealership. Love the taco and its condition is perfect in every way but Due to recent events seats are unbearable for me even with modification. I really like the new Chevy or GMC full-size trucks never really been a Ford guy don't know much about the tundras but I'm open to them all . Thanks

    Non Toyota dealers will tell you it is worth less to them since they aren't a Toyota dealer. I think that is probably BS though.

    Your best bet is to always sell privately. At least, that's been my experience. It sometimes takes a little longer to sell, but it's worth the extra money. If you can't find a buyer privately, then I would try a dealership.

    Thanks, I always sell private, and it's always such a pita. Many people have no consideration for the sellers time. I've had people want a test drive and full on demo of vehicles they latter admitted to no where near being able to afford.
