Wow, where do they get their numbers from? I havent seen a single CRD for sale for less than 16k. |

Will $4.00 gas this summer help at all? Are these values at all based in reality? |

The problem is that KBB is a self-fulfilling prophecy. If the book says $11K that's what a dealer will do on trade...or real close. People think you're ripping them off if you try to sell it for a lot more than KBB. |

It's hell a lot better to just give it to a dealer than to sell it privately to someone who'll bother you or will give you hell--- |

Ya, but they want me to pay them to take it 
At this point, I will drive it until I can trade it without losing my shirt. |

Man, I love my CRD. Just paid $19,100 for a '05 with 9600 miles on it. I'd have been thrilled to buy one for $11k! |

Mine is good except I dont trust the reliability, and no cruise (my fault, I though it could be added after) |

The last time I checked values there was a big discrepancy between what KBB and Edmunds quoted me. Edmunds always seems to be higher. Of course, dealers will use whichever source puts them ahead. |

Sorry you are having reliability issues. Mine seems to be built like a tank. Runs great, gets decent mileage, tows like a champ, and no quirks whatsoever. I'm betting if you get the issues sorted out, the dang thing will run for years. |

Check NADA. Their numbers look more accurate. |

NADA $15,950 - Trade Edmunds $16,762 - Trade KBB sucks. |

If you like losing a couple thousand or more, dealer trades are great. Private sellers shouldn't care -- no warranty is given or implied. |
