Here, it's not really worth it to sell your car yourself even if you can sell it for more to a private party, as you only pay sales taxes on the difference between the new car value & trade-in value of your old car. I don't need the hassle of having to answer inquiries & take people out to test drives . . .

Thats why you have your car rigged with C-4 so something like that happens you blow it up and with the person stupid enough to steal it. Not all insurance companies would let you do it though

Honestly sell the car back to the dealer, even though they will rip you off ... if your lucky find a friend willing to buy the car
