While in some cases you may be able to make more money selling it on your own, trading your car in to a Dealer offers several advantages. You are likely to get immediate cash or credit. Your Dealer will handle the paperwork and might pay off your current loan\\/lease. You also won’t have to deal with some of the hassles associated with selling a car on your own. No running ads, no title transfer paperwork, no strangers in your car, and no bad checks.<\\/p>\
