Do your research
Your first step to trading in your vehicle is to get an idea of how much it's worth. This can be done by running your vehicle's details through sites such as Kelley Blue Book, Edmunds, or NerdWallet's new car value tool. This step helps give you an idea of your available budget when shopping for your new vehicle, so make sure you take your time and research thoroughly!
Request a Quote
The next step is to get a quote. Utilize the Mark Porter Ford appraisal tool to instantly request a quote based on details like your vehicle's year, model, and mileage. The questionnaire will also cover features within your vehicle that may affect the final quote. This is the time you can also input the estimated value you got from your research in the previous step.
Take your vehicle in
The next, and perhaps most exciting step, is to take your vehicle with you when you go to Mark Porter Ford. It is vital that you bring in the appropriate documents for this step, as a trade-in cannot be performed without them! On the day of your trade-in, make sure to bring:
- Vehicle Title (the “Pink Slip”)
- Vehicle Registration
- Loan Payoff & Account Information if you have a standing loan
- All of your vehicle's keys
- Your Driver's License
By making sure to bring all listed items can streamline the trade-in process for both you and our finance center, meaning you'll be on your way with a new Ford, such as the 2022 Ford Explorer or Ford F-150. And if you aren't a 100% certain which new Ford is perfect for you, you can schedule a test drive at our Jackson Ford dealership to see what you like.
