Trading in your used car.

what do i do w/ a 2002 honda civic that bluebook values at 700-1300?

Yes, admittedly i've shown pics, my engine block looks like it's been underwater, but i actually keep up w/ the service, we're thinking about a suv in a year two, i know two couples w/ 3 cars (young kids), two car garage, but can of course just park 2 in the driveway as well, and if i want to, park on the street.

I sold my 1996 Civic DX coupe manual with no power steering and 200,000+mi for $800 because the AC still worked. Depending on miles, condition, transmission, AC (especially if you live in a southern state), you might be able to squeeze $2000+ out of it.

I'm still bothered by the trade in my wife got on her 13 Focus ($7.5k, they offered $6k), since we may have been able to get $9-13k, but it likely would have taken quite a while to find a buyer.
